BALTIMORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hutch, a digital services incubator that strengthens minority and women entrepreneurs, announced today that a new cohort of seven founders will begin its intensive 24-month program with the goal of delivering digital transformation to government. The entrepreneurs selected to join Hutch's program will learn skills in strategy, branding, contracting and business development to build an ecosystem of successful and impactful digital services firms that transform the way government serves its people.
The following companies are included in the new cohort:
"I am proud to have been selected to join the Hutch program. We are all called to build technology that better serves the public good and I appreciate Hutch for creating a program that can help us meet this need in the market," said Emmanuel Apau, CTO of Mechnicode and former employee of the United States Digital Service.

Hutch provides entrepreneurs with a foundation to secure government customers, and the specialization to scale their company and bring in more contracts. In December 2021, the second cohort graduated from Hutch's program. Most were engaged in contracting or subcontracting work before they left the program. With this new cohort, the Hutch portfolio consists of 20 digital services companies.
"The Hutch program helped me and my business partner take our company to the next level," said Colleen Godbout, Chief Operating Officer of Lucky Rabbit, a December 2021 graduate. "Most impactful for me were the discussions on establishing and growing company culture – defining our 'why' – as well as gaining the skills and understanding to strengthen our back office. Without these two key components, Lucky Rabbit would not be where it is today."
"I believe in the message and mission of Hutch and love that we are increasing the representation of women-owned and minority-owned digital services companies," said Victor Udoewa, Hutch board member and Chief Experience Officer and Service Design Lead, NASA SBIR/STTR. "Diversity isn't just a marketing advantage; diversity actually affects the digital services we make and their outcomes. From the bias and racism in algorithms to the accessibility, inclusion, equity and environmentally-just outcomes our designs could possibly imagine, diverse digital services calls them forth, and speaks them into existence."
