Allergan Aesthetics is rolling out the next phase of its 2024 BOTOX Cosmetic grant program: crowdfunding campaigns for each of the 20 recipients.
In its second year, the BOTOX Cosmetic grant program awarded $25,000 grants to women entrepreneurs. Beyond financial support, these women participated in a transformative bootcamp, including small group workshops dedicated to brand building, strategic planning, and marketing, as well as one-on-one coaching and mentorship with industry experts.
The 2024 grant recipients participated in the IFundWomen 10-week online Crowdfunding Accelerator Program, strengthening their business pitches and preparing to launch their campaigns.
“Women-owned businesses continue to receive on average less than three percent of all venture capital funding1. With so few resources and funding available, crowdfunding is a key opportunity for these entrepreneurs to grow their businesses,” says Carrie Strom, President, Allergan Aesthetics and Senior Vice President, AbbVie, in a news release. “Many women-owned businesses focus on bettering their communities and have a significant influence on job creation, innovation, and overall economic prosperity. By supporting grant recipients through their crowdfunding campaigns, we can drive impact and empower confidence in these entrepreneurs and beyond.”
