I was recently asked to be a mentor for RampCorp, a business accelerator for women through Texas State University. In just a few sessions, I see the power in spending time with women who’ve built multi-million dollar companies or have a dream to build one. When you surround yourself with other people who have pushed through their fears and created something bigger than they ever thought possible - you can’t help but think “I can do this too!”

Magical things happen when you spend time with people doing great things. You step up your game, become open to doing things differently, gain clarity and focus around what your next steps should be and the best part - you’re connected to the very people who are capable of helping you make it happen!  It’s a simple reality: your success + happiness depends on who you hang out with professionally and personally.

We want to help you connect with big thinkers and accelerators. Here’s a list of top business accelerators for women-led companies and upcoming worthy events we’ve curated for you.
