In the knowledge that women innovators are essential to a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem, we've created and curated a programme that supports our incredible women founders here at the School.
Students and alumni can access a unique all-year round offering that includes skills development programmes, coding schools, female-founder accelerator streams, investor introductions, pitching practices, retreats, mentoring, Founderships (entrepreneurial grants for women Founders) and a host of digital resources. We aim to replicate the elleSE support programme across our international chapters in Chengdu, Mumbai, LA, NY, Africa, Lisbon and other hubs that we aim to build across the next five years!
Within our acceleration programmes we will have specific support for our women founders that will include business bootcamps, skills-shares, mentoring and coaching, financial support and co-Founder support.
