Atto Community Update: Sept 2021
Atto HQ 🏡
September was another big month at Atto!
We kicked off the Atto Accelerator for 2021 with 26 female founders building 23 tech startups. Check out the batch here.
We hosted our monthly public masterclass with Whitney Teluk all about how to build impact into your business model.
Atto Accelerator 🚀
We’re halfway through our 12-week Accelerator program now. So far, our founders have learned how to create their big founder vision, how to do customer discovery and validation, how to map out their MVPs, and how to build impact into their business model.
Join us to meet the founders and hear from Kirsty Chong, founder of ModiBodi during the 2021 Demo Day on November 24. Register here.
Atto Academy 🎓
For our October public Masterclass, we’ve got star communicator and diversity, equity and inclusion changemaker Cathy Ngo from Keynoteworthy joining us to teach our founders how to share your founder story.
Cathy is a highly experienced entrepreneur, speaker, communicator, and leader for women entrepreneurs (in particular for women of colour), and uses humour in public speaking for more effective storytelling. Register here.
