You may or may not need another reason to shop at one of the 32 Sephora locations in Virginia, but we’re going to give you one anyway.
Sephora announced the newest members of its Sephora Accelerate program, which supports female entrepreneurs in the beauty industry. Fifteen female founders will receive access to the Accelerate alumni network, Sephora executives and industry experts, who will help the founders meet their business goals.
As part of the 2019 Accelerate cohort, the founders will receive expert guidance from Sephora and program partners, one-on-one mentorship for specific business challenges, access to financial grants to fund their businesses, and the chance to pitch their companies to industry experts, venture partners, and senior Sephora leaders.
If you want to learn more about this year’s cohort, you can go to Sephora Stands and learn all about the founders’ businesses, and maybe even get some inspiration to start your own.
