About the Organization

Miller Center has been a leader in the global social entrepreneurship movement for more than 25 years.

Social entrepreneurs around the world are innovating solutions to tackle our most pressing social problems and address the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We believe that social entrepreneurship is leading the way in transforming markets for good and ultimately propelling us to end poverty. Further, we believe that scalable and replicable social enterprises led by local leaders are in the best position to provide lasting solutions.

Take your impact to scale and get ready for next-level investment. We connect social enterprise leaders with the expertise, resources, and networks to overcome barriers to growth. Apply now for our July 2025 cohort.

If you lead a mission-driven social enterprise looking to scale a proven impact model, you’ve come to the right place! Miller Center’s Silicon Valley-based, globally recognized, investment readiness accelerator helps leaders develop pathways to scale and prepare for next-level investment.

We focus on social enterprises working on women’s economic power and/or climate resilience. With proven curricula and accompanied by our outstanding executive mentors and leadership coaches, together we’ll uncover and address gaps and opportunities in your business, and develop an action plan so you can achieve your vision for organizational growth.
