Amazing supportive community. It's like a monthly mastermind where people get together to help each other grow! Love the network incubator.”
I’m was so excited that this wasn’t the surface-level networking. It was a deeper conversation about challenges and ideas and I really appreciate that that’s happening in my city.
Way more than I expected. I thought this would be just a nice event. I didn’t expect to walk away with tangible, executable, workable strategies.
IT BEGAN WITH AN IDEA
The Network Incubator was created in May 2019 by Ayanna McMullen, "The Catalyst". After becoming a full-time entrepreneur she realized how isolating and challenging the business world can be, especially for under-resourced entrepreneurs.She was inspired to create a space where entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals could(1) share honest conversations about the ideas or challenges they experience within a safe space,(2) receive real-time support, actionable strategies & resources and,(3) connect with each other in a non-traditional way that fosters creativity and collaboration.Ayanna is a Life & Business Coach, Social Entrepreneur & Electic Soul. Her company Harmony Organizing establishes individuals as successful business owners through her integrated startup strategy using proven business principles, intuitive alignment, root cause coaching and connection.
