Budding entrepreneurs in Brimbank who have a business idea they wish to realise, can cultivate it into something more with the help of a council initiative.
Council’s ‘Cul-ti-vate’ program is designed to accelerate the process of validating an idea, understanding if there is a market for it and then determining the viability for it.
It’s built for entrepreneurs or intrapreneurs, as well as small business owners, looking to future proof their business.
The program runs over a six-week period commencing on March 12, at a pace that encourages quick and iterative thinking — not unlike what is required in today’s environment.
All applicants will go through an assessment process based on information provided in the application.
Successful applicants must be able to commit to the full program.
During the program successful candidates will receive six master classes delivered by Runway, which will include a combination of in person and virtual sessions; access to online content via Runway’s Online Learning Platform; networking opportunities; opportunity to participate in special events; and use of the iHarvest Coworking Sunshine during the program.
If you feel your situation might not be suited to the Cul-ti-vate program, Council’s economic development unit and the iHarvest Coworking Sunshine also provide extensive development programs on a broad range of topics.
