Small steps. Big results.

Success doesn’t always happen overnight, it’s built through the small, intentional steps you take every single day. Stay consistent. Stay focused. Keep moving forward.

Your small steps today are building the BIG results you’ll celebrate tomorrow.

Tonight, we added even more EXCELLENCE to the wall!

The Greater West Dayton Incubator proudly unveiled the newest additions to our Wall of Entrepreneurial Excellence, recognizing entrepreneurs, leaders, and change agents whose work continues to make an impact in Dayton and beyond.

We’re proud to now recognize:

✨ 6888 Kitchen Incubator, co-founded by Charlynda Scales, Dabriah Rice, and Jamaica White
✨ Jenell R. Ross, President of Bob Ross Buick GMC & Pre-Owned Vehicles and Mercedes-Benz of Centerville
✨ Phillitia K. Charlton, professional speaker and personal & professional development coach

And what better way to celebrate than by kicking off our first Business Networking Mixer — bringing entrepreneurs, business leaders, community partners, and supporters together under one roof to connect, collaborate, and build.

The wall is growing. The network is growing. And so is the impact happening right here in our community.

Congratulations to our newest Wall of Entrepreneurial Excellence honorees!
