GROW TO SCALE: Cohort 1 Info Session - Reimagining How Black Women Business Owners Scale

Ready to scale your business without burning out? Join us for this comprehensive info session about Grow to Scale, a 12-week cohort experience designed specifically for Maryland-based Black women-owned businesses generating $100K-$1M in revenue.

🌱 WHAT IS GROW TO SCALE?

Grow to Scale reimagines what scaling looks like—prioritizing collaboration over competition, wellbeing as core strategy, and community-driven growth models. This isn't another accelerator asking you to hustle harder. This is something different.

📅 PROGRAM DETAILS:
• Duration: March 17 – May 29, 2026 (10 sessions + alumni gathering)
• Format: 7 virtual sessions + 3 full-day in-person experiences in Greater Baltimore

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT:
✓ Designed FOR your stage ($100K-$1M revenue—not startups, not enterprises)
✓ Wellbeing as core business strategy, not an afterthought
✓ Collaborative growth models (joint ventures, mergers, subcontracting, shared services)
✓ Participant-designed funding challenge (you co-create the criteria—no pitch competitions!)
✓ Culturally responsive leadership development with The PlayBook
✓ Sophisticated operational training with Operations School

🎯 WHAT YOU'LL GAIN:
• Systems & Infrastructure (AI integration, automation, operational frameworks)
• Leadership Capacity (building winning team cultures, EQ, CQ, powerful communication)
• Legal & Financial Foundation (compliance, insurance, risk management, profitability)
• Clear Growth Strategies (organic, collaborative, or partnership models)
• Deep Community (9-11 other Black women business owners at similar stages)
• Funding Access (collaborative capital distribution experience)
• Conference Support ($1,000 stipend per participant)
• Sustainable Practices (burnout prevention strategies that actually work)
