Entrepreneur Incubator
 

ASTC's goal for 2021 and beyond is to help people start their own Social Enterprise in hopes of diversifying the economy.  This includes all sectors, not just the Hospitality and Tourism service industry.  

This Incubator is for all, the private sector (nonprofits and for-profits), and the public sector.
