Venture Programs
The Arizona Commerce Authority’s Venture Start, Venture Raise and Venture Scale were developed to support startups who are ready to take their business to the next level.
Venture Raise is a multi-step program designed for startups who have a product in market and early users/customers. At the end of the program, founders will have a better understanding of funding options, fundraising planning and how to ask for funds.
Venture Scale is a nine-month accelerator for Arizona-based, high-growth companies preparing for a Seed or Series A raise. In partnership with Bridge Entrepreneurs Network, Omni Institute and TrueSpace, the program pairs founders with expert partners and proven frameworks to sharpen fundraising strategy, build resilient operations and strengthen leadership as they scale.
