Mentorship Matches
The IWMS Mentorship Program offers a short eight-week mentorship experience, bringing together members of the community with artists and makers who are engaged in entrepreneurial pursuits. IWMS is very pleased to partner with DIVERSEcity’s CWB Business Incubator for Women Entrepreneurs, a 20-week program that develops the entrepreneurial skills of women with creative skills and ideas, and builds peer networks among women entrepreneurs.
To build these peer networks, DIVERSEcity’s CWB Business Incubator for Women Entrepreneurs program has created a collective business community called Infinity Womenpreneurs, where participants of the program can come together to showcase and promote their products.
​
IWMS is thrilled to work in collaboration with DIVERSEcity’s CWB Business Incubator for Women Entrepreneurs, the participants of these programs, and members of the community to offer mentorship opportunities in support of women who are courageously moving their creative and entrepreneurial activities forward in new directions.
