Empowering Leaders to Create Change and Achieve Impact

At the BizFed Advocacy Academy, we empower aspiring and established leaders with the tools, knowledge, and networks to shape policies, grow businesses, and create meaningful change in their communities.

What We Do and Why We Do It

The BizFed Advocacy Academy is a gamechanger for small business owners, entrepreneurs, students, and individuals who want to amplify their economic footprint.

We go beyond the basics, pulling back the curtain and demystifying business skills and strategies that often get overlooked — but are critical to success.

We focus on bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and real world application. By fostering a hands-on learning environment, we empower participants to tackle real life business challenges confidently and creatively. This approach ensures that every skill learned is both actionable and immediately relevant to their entrepreneurial journey.

Through:

Participants learn how to network with impact, secure funding, plan effectively, manage operations, and master public relations and social media strategies

Our program connects participants with seasoned mentors who provide continuous support in real-world skills like proposal writing, contract negotiation, marketing, public speaking, lobbying, and more. This is more than a program; it’s a transformative experience that builds confidence, unlocks potential, and empowers participants to create their opportunities while driving meaningful change in their communities.
