ACU Entrepreneur Bootcamp
Hey Abilene ReInventors:
Remember the Springboard business plan competition last year? Well, it is time to start thinking about that again! This year, they have collaborated and come up with a bootcamp for interested entrepreneurs. See the link below for more information. The bootcamp will help you flesh out your ideas...prior to writing a business plan. It would be a great first step!
Please forward this email to anyone you know that has a business idea they haven't launched for a variety of reasons. This is the time to get some great help! This particular bootcamp is limited to 50 people. The cost is $99, but there may be some scholarship help if you are interested.
You don’t have to attend this in order to participate in the Springboard business plan competition, but you will be ahead of the curve if you do! I highly recommend this to anyone with business ideas floating around in their mind!!
