A Fashion Program by VSEDC
VSEDC believes everyone has a role to play in moving the community forward. The idea for the Urban Pose program is to provide both new business owners and those already in the business with the “nuts and bolts” of all business phases, thus avoiding many of the common mistakes that might impede owners of the opportunity to have a successful and profitable business.
This initiative actively champions entrepreneurs with an interest in the fashion industry by offering support, nurturing, and elevating their presence. The Urban Pose Fashion Program, inaugurated in 2020, is designed to deliver education, resources, mentorship, and personalized opportunities to further the growth of these businesses.
