ACCESS is an entrepreneurship program launched by TiE Atlanta Angels to close the mentoring and funding gap between women- and minority-owned businesses.
While women- and minority-owned companies are trailblazing the entrepreneurship scene, access to capital, mentoring, and the right network remain as barriers. ACCESS aims to set the stage for business owners to present their product or service to established angel investors from TiE Atlanta.
The current application for the 2021 cohort is open from March 1, 2021 to April 30, 2021. If you’d like to be involved with ACCESS, complete this form and the TiE ACCESS team will be in touch.
