In terms of the more intensive WFF Accelerator, we will be looking for 10 scaling businesses that are or going to be rooted in Wake Forest to participate in this industry-agnostic program for Cohort #4 (Fall 2025: September, October, November 2025).
The Accelerator program will offer access to thought leaders in the region, core entrepreneurial curriculum + training, legal support, access to capital networks, and pitch scrubs, among other offerings. Dr. Flood will be our primary guide, as Accelerator Manager, and have several Founders-In-Residence for additional mentoring throughout the year. There will be a network of Town stakeholders and entrepreneurial experts involved as well.
Here’s the schedule:
1 Virtual Meeting (60-90 minutes) each week (specific time TBD) + 3 Weekend Intensives:
September 13-14, 2025
October 11-12, 2025
November 15-16, 2025
