“As a business owner and participant in the BOC Business Growth Accelerator sessions, it has been an eye-opening experience. These sessions were invaluable and highly needed. Because of this training not only was I able to get a contracts with Columbia University where I invoiced about $200,000, but I now have a road map and a plan for growing CleanWork Solutions.”
