Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses is designed for business owners who have a business poised for growth! It is an educational program that drives business growth, increases job creation and drives the business owner to work on their business (strategically) and not work in their business. This program, designed by Babson College of Boston, goes beyond the basic concepts that many small business courses present and concentrates on a much deeper level of business strategy execution and growth.
Participants gain practical business skills that can immediately be put into action. They will be given one-on-one professional support (Business Advisors) to develop a strategic and customized growth plan. A network of support will be created for participants in the form of subject matter experts, powerful peer learning, networking opportunities, alumni services and access to capital. Within the alumni ecosystem, 86% buy products /services from each other.
It is a 13-week course, spread over three months, where over 428 businesses have graduated. If you gain acceptance, you are provided a free scholarship from the Goldman Sachs Foundation! There are 14 sites across the nation where this program is being taught.
I have attached several documents, a photo of our Philly Team with Michael Bloomberg and a link that will give you an overview of our program in great detail.
