Too often, great ideas stay small, not because they lack potential, but because they lack opportunity. Built from Bold was created to change that.
Based in Oklahoma City, we provide early-stage entrepreneurs with the two things that matter most: access and accountability.
Our 2-year program offers capital that’s practical and accessible, meeting entrepreneurs where they are and supporting their long-term success. But the real power comes from the weekly, one-on-one mentorship that walks alongside each entrepreneur, helping them understand their numbers, strengthen their systems, and grow with purpose.
We believe in the potential of people and in giving them the tools, structure, and confidence to turn that potential into something lasting.
Built From Bold isn’t a grant program — it’s a growth
partnership. Participants receive micro-loans that
increase in phases, allowing them to test, refine, and
strengthen their business as they progress. Alongside
the capital, they receive hands-on mentorship each
week focused on core business areas such as finance, operations, marketing, business relationships, and more.

The entrepreneurs who join Built from Bold aren’t looking for a handout — they’re looking for a way forward. Many are starting from scratch, balancing families, jobs, and dreams they’ve carried for years.
Others are reimagining what’s possible after a setback. What unites them is courage, the willingness to take that first bold step. Through mentorship and accountability, they begin to see themselves not just as dreamers, but as business owners with the tools to succeed.
And as their businesses grow, so does their confidence inspiring the next generation of bold thinkers to follow their lead.
