The program is part of the larger South Side Entrepreneurial Connect Project (SSECP). The SSECP seeks to identify and support “sustainable” ventures, including infrastructure building, student and faculty “engagement” through consulting teams, a microcredit fund and training programs for entrepreneurs, and opportunities for minority purchasing.
