The nationally-based CO.STARTERS curriculum equips aspiring entrepreneurs with the tools, community, and confidence to move from idea to action. At Gradient, we offer three tailored CO.STARTERS courses to support you—, no matter where you are on your entrepreneurial journey.
New events are currently being planned and will be announced here when ready!
Get Started is a three-hour workshop designed to help you dive into your business idea, refine your plan, and figure out your next steps. It's based on the proven CO.STARTERS model and is perfect for aspiring entrepreneurs! During this interactive session, you'll tackle three key areas: exploring your idea, refining your business model, and defining your next moves. Plus, enjoy a meal on us!
This three-hour workshop hosted in the evening is free and open to the public, plus dinner is on us!
During this four-part bootcamp, you’ll collaboratively work with peers to strategize, problem-solve, and apply business basics to your idea or venture. Our goal is to challenge you, stretch your thinking, and give you concrete tools to bring your business to life. This bootcamp is not about listening; it’s about doing.
CO.STARTERS Core is a 10-week program that will walk you through a proven process to get your business unstuck and off the ground. You'll learn the basics of turning an idea into a business with the support of mentors, advisors, and a business ecosystem to help you succeed long term. This pre-accelerator walks innovators through lean, effective business modeling methods in a simple and intuitive way.
“This week was gold! I am intimidated by math and finances and the program made it accessible and easy to understand. I love it and feel like I can totally do this.”
“Love having these mentor hours and getting such great real-world advice and feedback during these sessions.”
“Our facilitator was a rockstar. 10/10. 100%. She’s the MVP.”
“The small class allowed us all to really dive into our business ideas. The mentor sessions were my favorite.”
As of right now, all CO.STARTERS programming is only offered in person. But, we'd love to hear if a virtual option would be helpful!
Nope! We are thrilled to offer this program to anyone interested.
Get Started is free, Starters Bootcamp is $150, and the CORE Pre-Accelerator, upon acceptance, is $550 for Members or $750 for the public.
