The Social Enterprise Incubation Program (SEIP) is an intensive eleven-month process presented by CauseImpact LLC that integrates online and in-person group training and consultation with individual support, to provide a unique opportunity for a select group of organizations. During SEIP, four OCDCA member organizations will focus on strategy, sustainable mission impact and business development: from ideation and conducting thorough research, to developing a formal business plan and delivering an effective pitch.

The program starts in November 2020 and concludes with a pitch competition at the Ohio CDC Association’s 37th Annual Conference October 6-8, 2021.

To participate in the program, organizations must be OCDCA members in good standing. The fee is $1,500 for the four selected organizations. The deadline to apply is Friday, October 2nd at noon.
