About Us:
Urban Business Institute was founded on the principle of getting good cutting-edge resources to aspiring entrepreneurs in as little time as possible without sacrificing the realistic time it takes for an entrepreneur to transform into a competitive autonomous business owner. We take a vested interest in getting individuals to ownership, rather than just “sharing” information. We want each student to win! We want each student to own! We want each owner to last!
Since launching, we have transformed hundreds of current and future business owners in the U.S. and Caribbean. We use a variety of approaches to arm them with tools and assistance to take them to a profitable business ownership experience. We assist entrepreneurs in finding themselves, taking stock of their talents, challenging their intentions, testing their social circle, and managing their emotions to ensure they are on the right trajectory to success in business. We help them develop their sales skills, confidence, interpersonal skills, customer/client service skills, and much more to ensure they can endure through the challenges associated with success in business.
We’ve found that success in growing a business strongly lies in the leader’s capacity. We train using our Psypreneurship® model (found in the Power M.O.V.E.® curriculum) as we matriculate entrepreneurs. This model places heavy emphasis on the psyche of the entrepreneur. Power M.O.V.E.® breaks down the mental challenges in growing a business often found in budding small business owners and it conditions the entrepreneur for the necessary mental endurance, insight and ability as they experience a deep-rooted paradigm shift. It helps entrepreneurs learn what to expect in business and how to prepare it.

Overview:
Urban Business Institute is an urban commerce research and training institute that researches the psychographics of individuals in urban areas and how that behavior affects local commerce. We use our research findings and compiled data to assist in correcting the negative impacts those behaviors cause.
We use training and consulting of local leaders, professionals and entrepreneurs to help stabilize local economies and contribute to local markets' economic growth.
Urban Business Institute’s training has been the direct result of millions of dollars in new business revenues generated in local communities by our academy's graduates. Our challenging program has a 60% graduation rate with over 90% of graduates going on to start a successful full-time business or grow their existing businesses’ market share.

Our Approach
Our approach is to go into some of the most overlooked pockets and communities, where people often have limited access to solid business resources, and bring affordable training, with proven techniques, delivered by founders of successful businesses, that is easy to understand using strategies that are easy to execute; even by entrepreneurs without college degrees.
Mission:
Our mission has three phases:
1.To help entrepreneur-spirited individuals safely and successfully transition into full-time entrepreneurship.
2. Help those (and existing) entrepreneurs grow their businesses into competitive mainstream enterprises.
3. Create socially-focused enterprises that will be the catalyst to positive change in urban communities.
