About

EforAll South Coast provides business education, mentorship, and network building to early-stage entrepreneurs throughout the region. We run four Pitch Contests per year which provide great proof of concept as well as the ability to win money for your business.

The heart of our programming is our Business Accelerator.  We run the Accelerator twice per year.  It begins with a 12-week intensive where you are in a cohort of up to fifteen other entrepreneurs.  You are in the classroom with us for five hours per week with specialists at the top of their field leading the content.  We also match you with a team of three mentors to help guide you through the process.  You meet with your mentors weekly for 90 minutes during the initial 12 weeks.  At the end of the 12 weeks, you present your business plan in front of a panel of judges competing for money for your business.
