As access to capital has become challenging for start-ups during the COVID-19 pandemic, Supermaker is keeping entrepreneurial dreams alive with a grant and mentorship program for new businesses. Supermaker will award $100,000 and mentorship from a dream team of 40+ acclaimed executives and industry experts with representation from companies including Unilever, Adidas, Harry’s, and many more.
“We believe in the power of Supermaker to contribute towards an ambitious entrepreneurial future for the business leaders of tomorrow. With small businesses under threat, and ambitions waning in the face of pandemic and mounting downturn, the Entrepreneurial Dream Project provides for those building in the face of adversity,” said Supermaker founders Jaime Schmidt and Chris Cantino.
Two companies will receive $50,000 in non-dilutive capital and coaching from the Supermaker Mentor Network. An additional ten companies will receive mentoring. As part of the program, Supermaker will be featuring behind-the-scenes stories and insights from the winning founders.
