Wodonga Accelerator Program (In Progress)

Step back and look at your business model, walk a mile in your customers’ shoes and test new ideas in a supportive environment. Learn about negotiating, raising capital and even refine your elevator pitch - This is an amazing opportunity to work on the key drivers of businesses performance with the help of experienced consultants.

What to expect

Working along with a group of like-minded innovators, you’ll explore, validate and refine your business idea with the help of experienced mentors. Look at new ways to shift your concept in a changing landscape and make a real impact locally, nationally and even globally.

Whether it’s a product or service, a cutting-edge digital innovation or an invention welded in your garage, you’ll leave the Wodonga Accelerator Program with new customers, new opportunities, an innovative skillset, connections to a like-minded community, and, importantly you’ll be developing your most important asset, you.
