GroYourBiz Fellowship*

You can’t buy happiness.  But you can support someone’s dreams, and that’s kind of the same thing….

In December 2016, GroYourBiz and Red Letter Films launched an alliance to help women entrepreneurs develop professionally and expand their businesses. Thanks to our first GroYourBiz inaugural sponsors, we were proud to support nine women entrepreneurs to achieve their potential.

We know when women grow their business…good things happen! This initiative is going into its 5th year, and now we are asking for your support to assist more women who are ready to GROW.

The GroYourBiz Fellowship, valued at $1,500.00 provides a one-year membership to a GroYourBiz Advisory Board anywhere our boards currently exist, including VIRTUAL and GLOBAL Boards. Emerging women entrepreneurs who wish to be considered for a GroYourBiz Fellowship can apply here.

GroYourBiz Fellowship Winners will be selected based on who best meets the membership requirements as assessed by judges drawn from the business community and GroYourBiz Trusted Advisors.

*GroYourBiz Fellowships are a division of GroYourBiz Institute for Global Connections an NFP Association in British Columbia, Canada.

GroYourBiz Fellowship Member Requirements:

  1. Women business owners will be interviewed by the Advisory Board Chair on their readiness to commit to grow their business and must have been in business for at least one year or have proven business/personal expertise.
  2. Women business owners will be bound by the ground rules of confidentiality, commitment to attend meetings, as well as open communication at the meetings once they are selected for the Advisory Board.
  3. All members within each Advisory Board must be in non-competitive businesses to contribute to the diversity of experience and knowledge and the confidential and trusting environment of the Advisory Board.
  4. Members who want to continue with being on a GroYourBiz Advisory Board must commit to a one-year term of membership and payment of dues after one year of membership.
