BACK-OFFICE SUPPORT
The Accelerator provides tangible assistance, saving business owners time and money. Value is added by providing back-office support needed to manage essential parts of the operation, allowing the owner to focus more on growing their business than “in their business.” And the best part…these services are free.
As a result of receiving a grant award from the City of Las Vegas, business owners are eligible to receive the following services for free: bookkeeping and monthly financials ; website development ; social media management
NATIONALLY LESS THAN 1% OF EQUITY CAPITAL IS INVESTED IN AFRICAN AMERICAN AND HISPANIC-OWNED BUSINESSES.
The Accelerator partners are raising a $10 Million equity capital fund investing in high potential entrepreneurs.
