At a recent Creative Mornings in Boston discussing entrepreneurialism, I was introduced to Mass Challenge- A Boston initiative to promote and support the development of start up companies. I am lover of small independently run businesses, so I was totally smitten with the idea!
Mass Challenge opens up applications to small start ups who are looking for support (financially and promotionally) and accepts a limited number from the pool of applicants. Boston start-ups then have the opportunity to develop their business foundation under the support of Mass Challenge in a super cool space in Boston's Innovation District.
Here is a video to give you a better idea of what Mass Challenge is all about.
At the event, I met some of the founders of Design Museum Boston (one of the start ups involved in 2012 Mass Challenge). My fingers are crossed for their success, they have a pretty rad mission! They've just launched their membership scheme, so have a look!
I am so excited to see such initiatives in support of small business, it makes me giddy to watch opportunity grow for young entrepreneurs
