Amplify Davidson is a collaborative community initiative which seeks to support the growth of Davidson small businesses and equip residents to thrive as entrepreneurs.
Formed through a partnership between the Town of Davidson, NC and the Jay Hurt Hub for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, the initiative aims to ignite business growth through a multifaceted approach: skills-based educational programming, small business consulting, and a commitment to providing underrepresented business owners with access to subsidized talent.
To date, Amplify has supported over 75 individuals and businesses in furthering their business success!
Actionable skill-development is a key focus area for Amplify Davidson. Through the community’s feedback, we determined educational sessions in marketing, adapting to current tech trends, and entrepreneurship fundamentals to be the most critical focus areas. All programs through Amplify Davidson are open and free to current residents. Learners outside of Davidson are welcome to attend programs at the determined cost.
Check out our Amplify Davidson Classes page to learn more about upcoming learning opportunities or contact Amy Gascon amgascon@davidson.edu.
Through the Gig-Hub program, we can match you with Davidson College students to complete short-term projects. Add capacity to your team and access talent for short-term projects in order to satisfy needs for data analysis, market research, social media marketing, and more. Gig-Hub student consultants are employees of Davidson College, but receive project assignments and direction from you, the client. We take care of the paperwork and taxes, so you can focus on the gig.
Please reach out to Amy Tirpak (amtirpak@davidson.edu) to learn about subsidized and pro bono Gig-Hub pricing options.
At The Hurt Hub, we’re not just consultants; we’re builders like you. We’ve been in the trenches, starting and growing businesses of our own. That’s why we’re committed to providing more than just plans and theories.
From uncovering hidden inefficiencies to offering targeted, ready-to-execute solutions, we make it our mission to amplify your growth with actionable insights. If you’re a Davidson-based business, you’re eligible for subsidized and pro bono consulting services through Amplify Davidson. Let’s build something great together—your success is our business.
