Beyond the incubator

Beyond the Incubator

Three ways S.U.S.S. keeps supporting founders after the core program.

A

The Pitch Competition

S.U.S.S. recruits competitors and runs the event. Finalists pitch to a panel of investors, and the winner chooses which panelist's offer to accept, with full terms and judging criteria published before the competition opens, so nothing is a surprise after someone has already won. S.U.S.S. itself never takes equity or ownership in any company it helps launch.

B

Quarterly Business Symposiums

Panels of real business owners, held at larger churches, covering banking and finance, inventory, supply chains, hiring and firing, and founder dynamics. Open and low-barrier for anyone, the strongest candidates can graduate into the full incubator track.

C

The Business Advisory Line

General orientation on taxes, policy, EEO, harassment, naming, and setup. Every call and event opens with a plain disclaimer: this is not legal counsel in any form. Anything that needs filing, drafting, or case-specific advice is routed to a licensed professional in the business directory.
