Based on the notion that entrepreneurs discover solutions and network over a million cups of coffee, 1 Million Cups is where entrepreneurs find their community! Each gathering attendees connect, learn and grow with their peers, mentors, and community advocates. 1MC works with entrepreneurs, empowering them with the tools and resources to break down barriers that stand in the way of starting and growing the companies that shape our community.

SheMate connects women in college athletics with the young people looking up to them. What started as a response to inequities in newly developed NIL opportunities for college athletes has become a community of people invested in celebrating women at every level.
More about 1 Million Cups:
As a program of the Kauffman Foundation, 1 Million Cups works with entrepreneurs, empowering them with the tools and resources to break down barriers that stand in the way of starting and growing their businesses. Mr. Kauffman believed it was a fundamental right for anyone who had a big idea to be able to bring it to life—and we're here to fulfill that mission.
Diversity, equity and inclusion are key to the success of our programs. Nationwide, 1 Million Cups communities aim to present an inclusive and supportive front door to their local entrepreneurial ecosystems. These qualities are essential for 1MC to fulfill its mission to educate, engage and connect entrepreneurs with their communities. And they are too essential to leave to chance as the number of 1MC communities continues to grow.
