EndeavorLAB is a two-month acceleration program designed to support local, minority-led early-stage companies by leveraging Endeavor’s global methodology and over 20 years of experience with scaleups.
Minority groups, such as women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ and more, are often overlooked when it comes to capital, talent and network inclusion. Endeavor strives to mend that gap by democratizing the access to mentorship and to Miami’s entrepreneurial ecosystem in the form of EndeavorLAB.
Founders are exposed to distinct perspectives and experiences related to the development of a business, pushing them to learn from others’ successes and losses and design their own growth strategies. Program participants also get to focus on a particular challenge area and identify potential solutions with the support of their chosen mentors. Finally, through curated and personal exchanges with fellow cohort members, founders get to create a new support system for their entrepreneurial journey.
