25 Sessions and Growing!
Congratulations Fall 2010 Community Business Academy Graduates |

 On December 9, 2010, Rising Tide Capital celebrated the graduation of 50 Community Business Academy students! The graduation also served as the Club CEO networking and holiday party, bringing together past graduates and new entrepreneurs to build a strong social fabric of business owners! This marks the 25th successful session of the Community Business Academy. Congratulations to all of the graduates. A special thanks to St. Paul's Lutheran Church for hosting the event, RTC entrepreneurs Angela Quinonez and Cinita Ray for catering the event, as well as RTC entrepreneur Veronica Sanders for providing custom made boutonnieres.

Global Entrepreneurship Week A Big Hit
One Week, 58 Events, 7 Days |
|
This has been a year full of many amazing moments, but most recently, we celebrated Global Entrepreneurship Week in Jersey City and it was a tremendous success: 58 events in 7 days in partnership with Make My City! Thank you to all of the supporters and attendees of this initiative. Please check out this fantastic Animoto video highlighting some of the events from the Week.
This year's Week focused on the "Buy Local" pledge, encouraging Jersey City residents to support local merchants. While GEW has passed, please make sure to continue to support the "Buy Local" campaign this holiday season by taking the Pledge and supporting the small businesses that are the backbone of the community.
