Launch of bETA

bETA is an 8-week immersion program to educate and prepare BIPOC entrepreneurs in Rhode Island acquire and run an already existing small business.

Starting a business from scratch is hard. You have to validate your idea, raise funding, attract customers, build operations, and beat the daunting odds of a 90% failure rate. Buying a business allows you to shortcut all of this and make money on day one of becoming a business owner.

The bETA Course is comprised of three-in-person workshop modules and 5 weekly virtual sessions spread over a 8 week period. Each Module will have participants get more in-depth knowledge about the process of acquiring a business - from finding a target, to what to look for in due diligence, to financing it and running it.

Over 30 BIPOC individuals in and around RI have been accepted into this program.
