Lakesha Mathis directs the St. Louis Regional Chamber's Diverse Business Accelerator program, working to help grow and scale more than 100 diverse-owned businesses. The St. Louis Regional Chamber’s Diverse Business Accelerator (DBA) was formed in 2019 for ethnically, racially, and gender-diverse business owners looking to advance their business objectives and build capacity. Over three months, the program walks owners through how to develop their business goals, market and communicate their services, make meaningful connections, and prepare for growth. The Diverse Business Accelerator also sets up a framework to enhance a business’s capacity to grow and succeed by teaching business owners how to attract capital, operationally execute contracts, secure funding, find new contracts, and expand existing agreements. SeekCapital recently ranked St. Louis #1 for female entrepreneurs and we have one of the fastest growing rates for businesses owned by women and people of color.
