Celebrating International Women’s Day 2020 in Tampa Bay

In February, JPMorgan Chase has announced a new, two-year investment in Tampa Bay Wave's and Embarc Collective's joint development of a new program designed to accelerate the growth of women-owned technology startups in the Tampa Bay area.

This new program will launch in the fall of 2020 and support women tech founders looking to scale their business. Members will participate in a 90-day accelerator program led by Tampa Bay Wave that will provide business development training and intensive mentorship from leaders in the startup industry. They will work with Embarc Collective coaches to identify and measure key business milestones, while also gaining access to both organizations’ large network of investors.

For those of us in the startup space, Fall 2020 seems like a lifetime away, so with International Women's Day coming up on March 8th, we wanted to share some great community programming created to support women in business during this week.
