We launched ScaleUp WNC last year, and funding will allow us to continue hosting two cohorts annually through 2019. Thirty companies completed ScaleUp WNC in 2015 (through Cohort 1 and Cohort 2). We’re proud to share that, to date, one-third of these alumni have already secured growth capital, and many more have met other major milestones.

Mountain BizWorks received more than 45 applications for the 2016 program during our first open window. Cohort 3 runs from March through May. The following cohort will run from June through September. Applications are continuing to be accepted for Cohort 4 and are due by April 17; apply now.
