Got a note from friends Dave
Blanchard and Josh Kwan over at Praxis. Praxis is focused on serving
entrepreneurs motivated by their Christian faith to advance the common
good. Serving a mix of non-profits and for-profits since it’s inception,
this year marks the launch of the Praxis Business Accelerator. The
program will select 12 of the top Christian-led companies that are in
high-growth, pre-scale stage (some selected ventures will already have a
few million in revenue, while others will be in their infancy). The aim
is help organizations scale while building up the entrepreneurs that
run these businesses so they thrive personally.
Praxis will provide mentorship, shared-faith peer community, access to capital sources, and hands-on support through core mentors in the areas of story, sales and strategy. Praxis is excited to welcome some of the foremost Christ-following leaders as mentors for our 2014 Business program, including Chi-Hua Chien, partner at Kleiner Perkins, Nancy Duarte, founder of Duarte Design, Kurt Keilhacker, founder of TechFund Capital, Sonny Vu, founder of Agamatrix & Misfit Wearables, and more.
Not a typical residential program, the accelerator takes place over 8 months via three events, culminating in a finale at Kleiner Perkins in Silicon Valley. Applications for the accelerator are open now at praxislabs.org.
