gBETA Urban League is open to Madison businesses owned by Black entrepreneurs and other entrepreneurs of color from high tech startups to Main Street small businesses. Help us help you uncover the hidden gems of the greater Madison community!

Four weeks of growth, fun and success.
The gALPHA program schedule can look different per season or cohort – we try to stay as flexible as possible to accommodate for the needs of each individual program and participant. Generally, the four weeks consists of a weekly team meeting and a weekly group meeting, two workshops per program, and a showcase to celebrate the program completion.

Come prepared to learn about building a startup, collaborate on innovative ideas, meet other participants, and join a team. You’ll have the opportunity to participate in interactive workshops, master your pitch and gain exposure to a number of mentors in the gener8tor network. At the end of the program, you’ll be considered an official gALPHA graduate! To celebrate, we’ll host a showcase to wrap it all up.

Four weeks is short, and we know it! gALPHA graduates get access to additional resources and support across gener8tor’s network, including the opportunity to move their company forward through our gBETA program. gBETA is a free, seven-week accelerator to continue working on building your company, gaining customer traction, meeting mentors and pitching investors.
