Target offers four different entrepreneurial programs

Retail giant Target has launched four distinctive entrepreneurial programs. The newest, appropriately named Target Incubator, is for Generation Z entrepreneurs aiming to do good for the world and the planet. All four programs have run 13 boot camps for more than 100 start-ups since 2013.

In addition to Target Incubator, there’s an accelerator named Target + Metro for global retail start-ups run in conjunction with Metro AG, a German food group, an extension of the three-year program it ran with Techstars. There’s one for emerging brands called Target Takeoff. And its longest-running accelerator is in India for start-ups based in that country. Learn more here.
