EDC A seeks board feedback on future programming for Fulshear Fast Track; advisor sessions and weekend bootcamps highlighted
Summary
Staff asked the Type A board for input on the future of the Fulshear Business and Entrepreneurship Hub (Fulshear Fast Track). Members said weekend bootcamps and one-on-one advisor sessions have been popular and recommended focusing on manageable, cost-effective programming.
Staff brought forward a discussion about future programming for the Fulshear Business and Entrepreneurship Hub (Fulshear Fast Track), asking the board for guidance on preferred formats and frequency.
Staff and advisory-board feedback emphasized that weekend bootcamps and one-on-one advisor sessions have produced strong outcomes and are relatively easy and cost-effective to run. A staff recap cited a recent depot luncheon with about 12 attendees—mostly repeat participants whose ventures had progressed to construction or leasing stages—as an example of the program’s small-group impact.
Board members suggested maintaining the mix of low-cost weekend events, advisor clinics, and periodic networking events while trimming the overall calendar to a manageable level for staff and volunteers. No formal action was taken; staff sought input to refine the program for the coming year.
