How the program works

Online learning content

You’ll work through short, practical modules each week, designed to help you apply new ideas directly to your business. Choose the track most relevant to you and complete the sessions in your own time, then build on the content in live workshops through peer discussion and expert facilitation.

Live facilitated sessions

You’ll join live, facilitated sessions where you’ll work alongside other founders to put the modules into practice. These sessions are interactive and discussion-led, giving you the space to explore challenges, share perspectives, and make progress on your business with support from peers and expert facilitators.

Community building

Connect with ambitious women entrepreneurs, share experiences, celebrate wins, and tackle challenges together. Plus, tap into INCO’s alumni network for ongoing support and opportunities.

Cash microgrants

Showcase your business in our video pitch competition for a chance to win cash microgrants of up to £5,000. 

We’ll provide a pitch training session so you can learn to confidently communicate your business impact.
