Swerve is the Triad\'s hub for creative entrepreneurs. We help creatives turn their passions into companies.
Calling all creatives! We want designers, film makers, photographers, dancers, podcasters, textile artists, painters, and anyone who identifies as creative.
Creatives often lack business support and may feel out of place at traditional business support organizations.
We have built a welcoming community specifically for creatives. We understand the unique characteristics of creatives and the challenges that they face.
Each month we bring together dozens of creative entrepreneurs for a lunch and learn, covering the fundamentals of business such as identifying your target customer, branding essentials, financial statements, and more. Swerve members are the core of the creative economy in Winston-Salem. Members forge friendships and partnerships, supporting and encouraging each other.
To help startups & small business owners "navigate" the many people & organizations who work together to support them.
