There’s Still Time to Apply for the ASA Accelerator Program

A new program from the ASA Foundation will support women entrepreneurs and founders in the staffing industry who are in the first five years of building their businesses. The ASA Foundation Accelerator Program provides resources to help them build professional relationships in the industry, get expert mentorship and guidance from peers, develop sustainable competitive advantages, and more.

Program participants will attend THRIVE Live and Staffing World®—the ASA annual convention and expo—in Orlando, FL; participate in monthly facilitated peer group meetings; and receive valuable mentorship through the ASA Mentor Match program. One participant will receive a $15,000 grant to help her grow her company.

Applications are due Aug. 13. Learn more at americanstaffing.net. The ASA Foundation Accelerator Program is made possible by a generous donation to the ASA Foundation.
