Eaze is Accepting Applications for Momentum's 2022 Class

Posted on November 29, 2021

We’re thrilled to announce that Momentum, Eaze's business accelerator, is open to applications nationwide for Momentum’s 2022 class. Our search for the next cohort of founders begins, taking us one step closer every day to building a more equitable cannabis industry. We are seeking people of color, women, members of the LGBTQ+ community, veterans, formerly incarcerated, anyone who has been affected by the War on Drugs and faced significant barriers to entry into the industry.

The program will include a $50,000 grant (no equity taken), participate in a twelve-week education program led by 70 industry volunteer experts; and have access to Eaze’s ecosystem of business, marketing and retailer resources. At Momentum’s conclusion, participants will pitch to industry-defining investors for the opportunity to raise additional funds to grow their businesses. 

Applications are open and the deadline to apply is December 21st. You can learn more on the Momentum landing page and apply now with this link.
