"We are excited to have thirteen companies joining in January," said Diana White, CEO of Chandler Innovations. "This course is a critical step in product and customer discovery.

We're building strong businesses that in turn, make Chandler a strong and thriving community."
The entrepreneurs are enthusiastic about joining the program. Mari-Jon, LLC, is one of the companies enrolled in Track One. Angela Green, Co-founder and CFO of Mari-Jon, learned of the program through the City of Chandler.
