ScaleUp Acceleration Program

Accelerating Established Founders Toward Sustainable Growth

The ScaleUp Acceleration Program is a comprehensive growth-focused initiative designed for active entrepreneurs and business owners who are ready to move beyond early traction and achieve rapid, sustainable expansion. The program combines advanced training, peer exchange, and one-on-one mentorship to help founders scale operations, strengthen leadership, and unlock new opportunities.

Program Impact

Each year, selected entrepreneurs gain the skills, tools, and strategic clarity required to grow their businesses by 25% or more. Beyond individual company growth, ScaleUp strengthens the broader entrepreneurship ecosystem by developing experienced founders who contribute to economic vitality, job creation, and innovation.

What Makes ScaleUp Unique

ScaleUp is built on proven international best practices in entrepreneurship development and adapted to local ecosystems. The program focuses exclusively on existing businesses, emphasizes real execution over theory, and prioritizes founder development through long-term mentor relationships.

Program Structure

The ScaleUp Accelerator runs over nine months and includes interactive training sessions, peer-based experience exchange, and individual mentorship. Entrepreneurs participate in expert-led workshops, attend curated mini-conferences, and engage in structured mentor meetings focused on strategic growth challenges.

Core topics include strategic planning, marketing and digital growth, sales management, leadership, cash flow management, finance for founders, investment readiness, and investor pitching.

Mentorship and Ecosystem Access

A defining element of ScaleUp is mentorship. Each participant is matched with an experienced entrepreneur who provides practical guidance, accountability, and perspective. In parallel, founders gain access to a wider network of experts, partners, and entrepreneurial organizations at regional, national, and international levels.

Through the ScaleUp Acceleration Program, Center for Entrepreneurship creates a clear pathway for established founders to move from stable operations to scalable, high-impact ventures.
