Applications are now being accepted for the final 2025 StartupSac FastTrac Entrepreneurial Training Program, a 12-week in-person bootcamp designed to help early-stage entrepreneurs transform their business ideas into thriving companies.
StartupSac, a Sacramento-based nonprofit, developed the program to equip under-resourced entrepreneurs with the tools, mentorship and connections they need to succeed. The program runs Thursday evenings, Sept. 18 through Dec. 18, from 5:30 to 8 p.m. at Bloom Workspaces in Midtown Sacramento.
“FastTrac is about more than building a business plan, it’s about giving entrepreneurs the confidence, knowledge and support network they need to move from idea to action,” said Laura Good, CEO of StartupSac. “This final 2025 cohort will be an incredible opportunity for Sacramento residents to take the next step in their entrepreneurial journey.”
The program is funded by the City of Sacramento’s Office of Innovation & Economic Development through the Innovation Growth Fund and was selected as part of the City’s Innovation Incubator and Accelerator Grants.
Participants will benefit from expert-led workshops on planning, finance and marketing; guest speakers with real-world insights; personalized mentorship; and a Demo Day to showcase their business concepts. The program also includes coworking access at Bloom Workspaces during the bootcamp.
“The City is proud to partner with StartupSac to support entrepreneurs who reflect the creativity and diversity of our community,” said Michael Young, Project Manager in the City’s Office for Innovation and Economic Development. “By investing in programs like FastTrac, we’re investing in Sacramento’s future businesses and the people who will lead them.”
The program is limited to just 10 participants, with priority given to Sacramento city residents. Applications are due by Sept. 5 at midnight.
