Own Your Next Chapter: AI Entrepreneurship Program
Help a Millennial or a GenX Own Their Next Chapter!Invest in the next generation of entrepreneurs, and help make AI opportunity more accessible for our fall cohort.The world of work is changing quickly. AI is reshaping industries, creating new ways to work, and opening doors to entrepreneurship. But access to these opportunities isn't equal.Many Millennials and Gen X adults, particularly those in underserved communities, have years of professional experience, creativity, resilience, and ideas for solving problems in their workplaces and communities. What they may not have is access to the technology, entrepreneurial education, mentorship, and resources needed to turn those ideas into something tangible.Own-Your-Next-Chapter: AI Entrepreneurship Program was created to help change that.The Flex-N-Fly Foundation, in partnership with AI Founder Playbook, is providing 20 NY residents ages 30–55 with fully funded seats in a six-week, hands-on AI entrepreneurship program. This isn't about just teaching people AI in theory. It's about helping people use AI to build.Participants don't need a technology background, coding experience, a startup, or even a fully formed idea. They bring their experience, a problem they care about, or simply a desire to explore what's possible.Over six weeks, participants learn how to:Identify a problem worth solvingResearch and develop an idea using AIDesign a product experienceBuild a working product with AI — without coding experiencePut their product in front of real usersUnderstand what users actually do through analyticsImprove their product based on real feedbackDevelop a pitch and determine their next moveThe goal isn't inspiration. It's evidence.By the end of the program, participants leave with:A working product Something real that works from start to finish and lives at a real web address.Real user feedbackSomeone outside the cohort has actually used what they built.Their own dataA live dashboard showing how people interact with their product.A plan for what's nextA recorded pitch and a prioritized list of what to build, test, improve, or potentially sell next.Your donation creates access.
