As we kick off this new year, I’m excited about the future of the EtA Launch Hub. Last year was about setting the right foundation; this year, it’s about growth.
The quote for this month perfectly encapsulates our mission. It reflects our commitment to innovation and leadership within this field, emphasizing the broader impact and legacy we aim to leave through our graduating fellows. Creating the first pre-accelerator for acquisition entrepreneurship drives me to continually enhance the prospects for our fellows, empowering them to blaze trails for others.
In the spirit of growth, please help us spread the word: applications are now open for the 2025 cohort. With this space rapidly evolving and competition heating up, beginning with our pre-accelerator for training and support is an invaluable opportunity to build a strong foundation.
Also, join us this week for two public events: a Q&A session on Tuesday for aspiring entrepreneurs, and a talk on Thursday with Yvette Owo about acquiring her accounting firm.
Let’s blaze trails together this year!
