“Through INVEST, I gained the confidence to step into leadership as a business owner. I now analyze challenges critically, evaluate opportunities with a professional lens and manage my finances with clarity. More than anything, I walked away with a renewed sense of belief in myself and my ability to build a sustainable and impactful business.”
– Adrianna, INVEST Graduate
