WASHINGTON – Feb. 7, 2017 – PRLog — With the launch of its PROSPECTUS Accelerated Business Program, a 9-week business development training program, Walker’s Legacy introduces the 75 women comprised of its Spring 2017 Cohort. These 75 women-of-color have their own individual entrepreneurial pursuits or small businesses with the common goal of success.

Coming from a variety of business backgrounds, the 2017 Spring cohort is comprised of female entrepreneurs in the fields of beauty, health and wellness, technology, communications, and much more. These participants collaborate virtually to learn how to take their businesses to the next level and receive first hand advice from thought leaders in their industries.
