“When I entered the Construction + Public Art Design Institute my problem was that I was depending exclusively on applying for grants to finance my dream of building a co-housing community. The coaches helped me identify a source of income in the meantime – we were relying heavily on securing a grant and the kindness of investors, but not really doing the work to show that we are deserving of being invested in. The workshops not only provide an opportunity for income, but also for recruiting for our survey, focus groups and, most importantly, members. It also helps us to begin meeting the educational component of our mission.”

“Before the Fashion + Beauty business incubator, I was unsure of what coco THE BRAND would look like. I came in feeling like I was hiding behind the nickname but I am moving forward feeling proud of coco, what the brand represents + the power behind it. Being in the program really helped me to get clearer on my brand and how I want to communicate with my audience. It’s been extremely powerful to sit in a room + receive feedback from experts with different skill sets. It was like what happens when you call on all the gods to put their powers together. I know that I am unable to complete everything I need on my own + I am blessed to have a support system in place. It’s been great having coaches + industry experts who are really interested in seeing us be successful. Plus, the team development section has helped me to clearly define + own my role as talent + founder.”
