Get a head start on your business with the First Course, where you’ll learn some key concepts of operating in the food industry.

The purpose of the Hope & Main First Course is two-fold:

1. To introduce emerging entrepreneurs to the topics of business planning, branding, labeling, costing/pricing, sales, and other start-up fundamentals.

2. To establish a sense of community among entrepreneurs at Hope & Main. In the environment of a cohort, new members are encouraged to engage in peer-to-peer learning and camaraderie.

The First Course is held for five consecutive Thursdays at 5:30 pm.
