Woodforest Foundry se empeña en ayudar a los empresarios a convertir su pasión en acción y poner a prueba sus ideas y su capacidad para dirigir un negocio. En general, es un programa para mejorar los ecosistemas empresariales locales que revitalizan las comunidades desatendidas y ayudan a las empresas a crecer. En su esencia, Woodforest Foundry proporciona un entorno orientado a la acción para que los empresarios creen, colaboren, prueben, reafirmen, lancen y desarrollen ideas en un espacio curado apoyado por los banqueros locales de Woodforest Bank.

"Es emocionante ver a nuestra segunda cohorte de graduados aprender sobre Woodforest Foundry y cómo les da las herramientas y los recursos para iniciar o ampliar sus negocios. Los participantes que forman parte de Woodforest Foundry y se unen a la cohorte no sólo toman clases, sino que se convierten en parte de un creciente y próspero ecosistema empresarial local que a su vez contribuye a otros emprendedores y ayuda a fortalecer y sostener su ciudad. La Foundry de San Antonio ha sido un prototipo exitoso, y estamos encantados de expandir la iniciativa a nuevas ciudades en toda la red de sucursales del banco a finales de este año", dijo Doug Schaeffer, vicepresidente ejecutivo y director ejecutivo CRA de Woodforest National Bank.

"La Foundry sigue inspirándome. Las pequeñas empresas que participan se están fortaleciendo y se están convirtiendo en parte de una comunidad de pares especial. Estamos viendo grandes resultados en muy poco tiempo y estamos muy entusiasmados con ello. Nuestras pequeñas empresas están creciendo, contratando más empleados y aumentando sus ingresos. Contar con mentores y orientación de confianza por parte de propietarios de negocios exitosos que enfrentan los mismos desafíos y pueden compartir herramientas y lecciones que han aprendido es invaluable", dijo Julissa Carielo, presidenta y fundadora de Maestro. "Agradecemos a Woodforest Foundry y a la Cámara de Comercio Hispana de San Antonio por su continuo apoyo. Con socios como ellos, Maestro Entrepreneur Center continuará haciendo un impacto en nuestra comunidad y construyendo un mejor mañana".

"La Cámara de Comercio Hispana de San Antonio se enorgullece de ser socio junto con Woodforest National Bank de la cohorte de 10 semanas de Maestro Entrepreneurship para pequeñas empresas propiedad de minorías, mujeres y veteranos. La cohorte ayuda a acelerar el crecimiento empresarial y proporciona a estos propietarios de negocios el apoyo, los recursos y las herramientas que necesitan para ampliar sus actividades dentro de Woodforest Foundry en el Maestro Entrepreneur Center", dijo Rebecca Quintanilla Cedillo, presidenta y directora ejecutiva interina de la Cámara de Comercio Hispana de San Antonio.

Desde 2017, más de 40 empresarios han participado en la cohorte, proporcionando orientación confiable a más de 20 pequeñas empresas, todas las cuales han mostrado un crecimiento en sus ingresos de entre un 10% y un 75%. Hasta la fecha, se han creado 88 nuevos puestos de trabajo en una zona históricamente subutilizada (HUBZone) de la ciudad, que es el código postal más pobre de San Antonio. Además, se han realizado más de 120 sesiones educativas en Maestro Entrepreneurship desde 2017, con más de 2,200 empresarios y otros asistentes.
