We are pleased to invite you to our first graduation ceremony in which we will formally recognize the program’s graduates from 2018. Given that our community has grown over the years, we’d like to open this up to all NextLEVEL Exchange partners who have been with us since 2017. Note that in 2017, we begin this program as separate organizations – at Sunshine Enterprises it was referred to as The Exchange and at the Chicago Urban League, it was referred to as Next Level. Now, we are one and have expanded to include other entrepreneur servicing organizations such as the Women’s Business Development Center. We have paired over 60 mentors and mentees since then! We have much to be proud of and we will appropriately celebrate. During the event, you will hear about specific highlights.

The NextLEVEL Exchange program connects industry-specific mentors to entrepreneurs who have launched their business. Mentorships are maintained for a 12-month period. Both mentors and mentees are trained in best practices of mentorship to ensure a quality experience.
