STRIVE Application Deadline

The STRIVE Program (Startup Training Resources to Inspire Veteran Entrepreneurs) is a 7-week entrepreneurship training program designed specifically for veterans, active-duty service members, National Guard and Reserve members, and military spouses who want to start or grow a business.

Participants receive hands-on training, mentorship, and guidance as they work through building a business model, validating their idea, and developing a business plan or pitch deck. The program also includes an opportunity for participants to present their business in a pitch competition at the end of the cohort.

Because the program is designed to be highly interactive, we are only accepting 15 participants for this cohort.

Program Dates: April 7 – May 19
Location: Entrepreneurs’ Center, Dayton
Cost: Free for eligible participants
