Over the next several weeks, participants will take part in hands-on business classes, mentorship, and coaching designed to strengthen their ideas, refine their strategies, and prepare them for the final step — pitching their business concept for a chance to win a share of a prize bucket of over $50,000 in grant funding.

Programs like Fire-Up Altavista are about more than competition — they’re about supporting entrepreneurs, strengthening our downtown, and helping great ideas grow into successful businesses.
