Partnership Growth Recent and ongoing partnerships with NBA Foundation, Albemarle Foundation, and potential expansion through international programs indicate a strong willingness to collaborate with corporate and foundation supporters. This presents opportunities to upsell sponsorships, joint programs, and tailored STEAM curricula for donor-backed initiatives.

Leadership Expansion New leadership appointment in 2023 combined with a shift toward expanding leadership programs like the Scholars Circle suggests readiness to scale and professionalize programs. Sales opportunities exist in executive sponsorships, leadership-focused curricula, and enterprise-grade program partnerships with districts seeking blend of mentorship and STEAM training.

Scale Programs Financials show modest revenue under one million with active funding at around 1.2 million and a recent virtual program launch funded by Trane Technologies. This signals capacity for larger grant-funded programs, multi-site deployments, and digital-to-in-person blended offerings appealing to school systems and nonprofits needing scalable STEAM access.

Targeted Market Focus on under-resourced girls and partnerships with schools, districts, and community nonprofits positions Project Scientist as a gateway for districts seeking equity-driven STEAM programming. Potential upsell includes district-wide MOUs, extended school year offerings, and after-school extensions for broader student reach.

Tech Enablement Existing tech stack (AWS, Drupal/WordPress, Salesforce, Shopify, Google Workspace) supports scalable program delivery, CRM, and e-commerce for grants and merchandise. Upsell opportunities include enhanced donor management, event sales, sponsorship dashboards, and digital credentialing to demonstrate program impact to funders.
