Moxie is a 15-month program that provides a supportive and personalized journey for OSU women* innovators. Through three distinct phases—Educate, Engage, and Execute—participants will gain essential knowledge in early-stage innovation and entrepreneurship, develop a strong network of mentors and collaborators, and receive ongoing guidance and support from Moxie staff. The program addresses common barriers faced by women in innovation, such as limited mentorship opportunities and acknowledging systemic biases.
By participating in Moxie, you will have the opportunity to increase your impact as an innovator, break through barriers, and develop the skills necessary to bring your research to the marketplace. As a selected participant, you will receive funding totaling $4,000 throughout the program. Moxie offers a dedicated mentor, who will advise you in creating a customized action plan to reach meaningful milestones for your business concept. Additionally, networking events hosted by the Advantage Accelerator will provide valuable opportunities to connect with other innovators and industry professionals.
*Moxie is a program for everyone regardless of their gender identity or expression. Everyone who identifies as a woman, as well as those who support and fight for the rights of women, are encouraged to participate in this program.
