The Start-Up Circle is a free, 9-session business and project planning course designed for aspiring and newly established entrepreneurs.

Classes are taught by local experts and cover the basics of starting or bolstering an independent business – from licensing to financial literacy, market research to cash flow and more. Participants leave the class with a completed business plan, a cohort of entrepreneurs in the Bradenton area, sources of small business capital, and the knowledge and confidence to take their ideas to the next level.

  • Applications for next cohort will be available January 7 – February 4, 2025

  • Next cohort classes will be held Wednesdays, February 12 – April 9, 2025
