Colliders education centers around the delivery of two cohort-based programs, co.starters and a community incubator. Co.starters helps early age entrepreneurs create insights, relationships, and tools to turn their ideas into action. The community incubator helps participants refine their business model into a viable product or service, enhancing their business potential through dedicated workshops, mentorship, networking, and other support to advance their business. Twenty-one local entrepreneurs graduated from their programming in 2024.
Colliders startup support service provides free, confidential, personalized support to help entrepreneurs figure out steps to start their business, find resources and co-create plans for business growth, and create individualized milestones. In 2024, this work supported 100 community entrepreneurs, 58% of which were women-owned businesses and 25% latino entrepreneurs.
