For over 40 years, the Sacramento Entrepreneurship Academy (SEA) has been Northern California’s longest running, most impactful entrepreneurship training program—launching founders whose companies have collectively generated over $10 billion in revenue. SEA is a comprehensive, team-based bootcamp designed for aspiring and early-stage entrepreneurs. Our program combines small group, project-based learning with interactive workshops to deliver both breadth and depth of entrepreneurial training. Each fellow works on a team but also critiques, supports, and learns from teammates’ ventures—maximizing growth through shared experience. What Sets SEA Apart • Intimate, in-person environment for maximum interaction, skill-building, and personal mentorship. • Team-based learning where fellows collaborate, challenge, and support one another. • Robust alumni network of 800+ graduates, including CEOs, investors, and industry leaders. • Dedicated mentors who guide your team from day one to final pitch • Evergreen access to subject matter experts, alumni, and resources long after graduation. • Direct access to the SEA network: CEOs, entrepreneurs, and investors who can open doors. • Subject Matter Experts to help guide every phase of business plan development. • Low-risk entry into entrepreneurship, providing the skills, connections, and for success. The Experience Starting with a cohort social, fellows meet the SEA Board, exchange ideas, and form teams. Sessions are held Saturday mornings through April at Sacramento State. Together, teams take ideas from market analysis through marketing, financial planning, and funding strategy. Supported by mentors who stay with them the entire journey, teams produce polished business and financial plans and present them at the final pitch session. The Showcase In May, teams present at SEA’s Annual Showcase, a premier networking event connecting founders to Sacramento’s business, investment, and innovation community.
