Applications are currently open for the Miller Center Accelerator program. This program exists to help its participants create a fundable plan and scale their enterprises. If you run a business or startup that empowers women and supports climate resilience, here’s an opportunity you can explore.
Organized by the Miller Center for Social Entrepreneurship, this accelerator seeks to prepare ventures from across the world for growth and next-level investor funding. It particularly targets businesses that are led by women, intentionally employ women, and create business opportunities for women. They may also have designed their products specifically for women.
The accelerator program will include executive mentorship, leadership coaching, and sessions that will address gaps and opportunities in participants’ businesses.

- Emerge with a stronger, more practical plan for scaling
- Expand and deepen their impact in the markets and communities they target
