About the WFF Accelerator

The town of Wake Forest is keen on leveraging the resources within our community to grow businesses. It’s in our DNA, and the Wake Forest Founders Accelerator is a centerpiece of our offerings.

The Accelerator program is Supported by the Wake Forest Area Chamber of Commerce, the Wake Forest Business & Industry Partnership, and the Loading Dock—and led by Dr. Tim Flood from the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School!

The structure of the 12-week Accelerator will include

  • 3 in-person, weekend-intensives with the formal programming occurring on Saturdays (full day) and Sundays (half day)

  • Weekly group virtual sessions (one evening per week)

as well as ongoing individual coaching, subject-specific work sessions, mentorship, pitch scrubs, and direct support for participants.
