Elevate x Ascend

Business Accelerator Program

Elevate x Ascend is LEAP’s 16-week accelerator program designed to support established BIPOC-owned businesses with a focus on revenue growth, profitability, and prominence.

Formerly offered as two separate programs, Elevate (for Black business owners) and Ascend (for Hispanic/Latino(a) business owners), these programs are now delivered together under one unified accelerator model. This approach allows participants to benefit from shared learning, expanded networks, and tailored technical assistance, while still honoring the distinct experiences of different communities.
