Ty Renee Woods, MBA is a nationally recognized funding strategist, entrepreneur, best-selling author, and keynote speaker who has spent more than two decades helping organizations and founders access the capital they need to grow and create lasting impact.

She is the Founder and CEO of BusinessGrants Inc., a platform designed to help nonprofits and for-profit entrepreneurs secure non-dilutive funding through grants, sponsorships, government contracts, and strategic partnerships. Through her courses, coaching programs, and national speaking engagements, Ty has taught hundreds of thousands of founders, nonprofit leaders, and entrepreneurs how to build organizations that are truly “grant-ready.”

Ty is also the creator of the 7 Bricks Framework™, a model that helps leaders build the infrastructure required to attract major funding and sustain long-term growth. Her work is grounded in real-world experience: she and her husband co-founded Artportunity Knocks, which grew into one of Georgia’s largest youth arts and STEAM education nonprofits. Building both a thriving nonprofit and a successful for-profit business simultaneously has given Ty a rare dual perspective on sustainability, fundraising, and revenue strategy.

She is the author of the best-selling book “The House the Pigs Built With 7 Bricks,” which teaches leaders how to build organizations that can withstand growth, leadership transitions, and economic challenges. Today, Ty speaks nationally to entrepreneurs, nonprofits, corporations, and faith-based organizations on how to access overlooked funding opportunities and diversify their revenue.
