Entrepreneurial systems are growing in Northwest Arkansas thanks to Startup Junkie’s team and initiatives to support the community and provide resources for local success.

• Supporting growth: The most recent program Startup Junkie has launched is EMPOWER, an accelerator for women and non-binary people in STEM in Arkansas. The first cohort consists of 5 entrepreneurs who were selected from a talented pool of applicants. 
• Forward and upward: The program is in its 5th week and Science Venture Studio (a Startup Junkie branch) along with industry and technology mentors from across the region have engaged with the individuals in the cohort. The result will be deep dives into innovation and strategies for a place in the market.
