Five entrepreneurs. One room. A whole afternoon of real, hands-on work. πŸ™Œ

Citizens volunteers sat down with our entrepreneurs at Warburg Pincus recently, sharpening pitches, working through real questions, in real time.

Thank you to the Citizens volunteers and to Warburg Pincus for making it happen.

The program may end, but the community doesn’t. πŸ™Œ

At NYPACE, connections turn into collaborations, referrals, and real support long after the cohort is over. That’s The Multiplier Effect. 🀝✨

Sweet things start with a strong foundation. 🧁

Meet Britney Moss of Cupcake Me! Our advisors helped her find her starting point, the base for a brand and digital presence that's really her.

This is what NYPACE support looks like in action.

Our advisors are the reason this works. 🀝

They show up, share what they know, and help entrepreneurs turn ideas into real businesses. And they'll tell you, it goes both ways.

As advisor Adrian Ramirez Aranda shared: "Supporting small businesses who lack the resources to invest in specialized services is a great way to give back to the community."

That's the Multiplier Effect in action.

Want in? Join an Advisor Info Session on August 17 or 31. The Fall Brooklyn Cohort application close September 21.
