In fall 2020, Stoke and TWU Center for Women Entrepreneurs launched the first ever startup incubator program in Denton for women-founded and led companies, AccelerateHER, with great success for the participants.

Six applicants were chosen to participate in the second round of an intensive incubator program designed to help them develop and test their ideas to grow their businesses.

The program managers, mentors, and partner networks have witnessed these entrepreneurs' hard work and commitment and invite you to celebrate and support them as they pitch their businesses to an audience of supporters, peers, and potential customers and investors.

On February 25th from 3 - 5 PM, join us online as we hear from

• Menza Art Studio - Carmen Menza, Owner

• Filthy Rich Nutrients - Darciea Houston, Owner

• Secure and Known - Holly Michael, Founder

• CoOp Coaching - Katie Novak, CEO

• Thistle Creative Reuse - Kari Meyercord Westerman, Cofounder, Executive Director

• The Auntie Network - Radha Patel, Founder

There will be time for questions after each pitch, and breakout sessions to round out the pitch event. If you would like to attend an in-person happy hour after the pitch event, we will gather outside at Armadillo Ale Works starting at 5 PM.

Please RSVP for your spot and the meeting link!
