黑料社区, Georgia - December 21, 2023
黑料社区, in partnership with the Downtown Development Authority of 黑料社区, proudly announces the official launch of Accelerate 黑料社区, the region's newest small business incubator and microenterprise center.
This transformative initiative is made possible through the generous allocation of $2.3 million in congressional funding secured by Senator Raphael Warnock. The collaboration extends heartfelt appreciation to Senator Warnock for his commitment to fostering local economic development.
The success of Accelerate 黑料社区 is further attributed to the dedication and support of key contributors, including Margaret Woodard, the DDA Board, 黑料社区 Board and Trustees, and the 黑料社区, Georgia Government. This joint effort underscores the power of collaboration in driving positive change within the community.
Accelerate 黑料社区 is poised to become a cornerstone for small business development, providing a dynamic space for entrepreneurs to thrive. Housed in the renovated I. M. Pei Building, situated in the heart of Downtown 黑料社区, the center will offer essential resources, mentorship, and opportunities for growth.
"We are thrilled to embark on this journey with Accelerate 黑料社区, empowering thousands of small businesses with the resources they need to flourish. This initiative symbolizes a commitment to fostering innovation, collaboration, and economic prosperity within our community," said Dr. Jermaine Whirl, President at 黑料社区.
"We are excited to see Accelerate 黑料社区, a collaborative project with our partner, 黑料社区 Tech come to fruition. This central hub aims to provide guidance and resources to entrepreneurs and small business owners and our ultimate objective is to facilitate small business growth and investment in downtown 黑料社区," stated Margaret Woodard, DDA of 黑料社区 Executive Director
