After completing the LAEDA program in march 2021, my business is now up and running. While I have been selling my items, I recently had a grand opening for my online store in April. I want to thank LAEDA for all ins support and training… I am so grateful to this program for inspiring and helping hustlers become entrepreneurs!!

Incredibly Transformative Experience!
Attending the Women’s Business Academy (WBA) has been an incredibly transformative experience for me. The program provided a wealth of knowledge and practical skills, but more importantly, it offered a supportive community of like-minded women who are passionate about making a difference through their entrepreneurial ventures.

Tremendous Help!
LAEDA has helped me tremendously, mostly in the area of tax law and how to navigate the confusing mess of the bureaucratic side of running a business. From registering an LLC and opening a bank account to doing taxes – LAEDA helped me in this area of business tremendously.

A Pivotal Experience!
Attending the Entrepreneurial Development Training Program (EDTP) was a pivotal experience. The program provided me with key insights into running a business, from marketing, finance, legal documents to operations and customer service. I learned the importance of a solid business plan and knowing how to sell your business to others.
