Small Business Primed Accelerator Program

The Primed Accelerator Program, offered through United for Business, is a 10-week initiative targeting small business owners who seek to enhance their operational effectiveness and prepare for sustainable growth. This program is intended to support entrepreneurs who are already generating revenue and are poised to scale their businesses. Participants benefit from hands-on guidance to improve internal operations, refine marketing strategies, and expand customer bases through structured workshops and peer engagement. United for Business offers this program as part of its mission to equip small business owners with the tools and support needed to thrive in competitive markets. The Primed Accelerator emphasizes real-world applications, offering resources to help participants build leadership skills and strengthen their networks. Entrepreneurs will receive individualized coaching and learn alongside peers in a collaborative environment that values mutual support over competition. The curriculum is designed for business owners with two to five years of operational experience and includes structured learning in growth planning, marketing, and leadership development. Participants are expected to commit to weekly Wednesday evening sessions, from 6 to 8 p.m., either virtually or in person at Mile High United Way located at 711 Park Avenue West in Denver, Colorado. Homework assignments are required between sessions to reinforce and apply course material. Participation in the Primed Accelerator is free, removing financial barriers for eligible entrepreneurs. However, admission is contingent on a demonstrated commitment to scaling an existing business and the ability to engage fully with the cohort-based learning model. This includes attending all sessions and participating in collaborative activities. Applications for the upcoming cycle are due by October 10, 2025. The program commences on October 15, 2025, and runs through January 7, 2026. There is no indication of a pre-application or screening phase. The program does not indicate that it is recurring, so future cycles are not confirmed. All application materials must be submitted by the posted deadline, and no rolling admissions are offered. No specific contact information is listed in the available documentation for individual inquiries. Interested applicants are encouraged to review all program requirements and confirm their eligibility before submitting an application. While the program is hosted in Denver, eligibility details do not explicitly confirm geographic restrictions or nationwide availability.
