Women entrepreneurs are invited to attend the EDC’s Women’s Business Boot Camp, an all-day workshop specifically designed to tune up or start-up businesses. Participants will learn how to write or revamp a business plan, find funding, learn about marketing and crowdfunding, learn how to get lucrative government contracts, how to network for business growth, and much more.

The workshop features speakers from the Small Business Administration (SBA), the Small Business Development Center, the Office of Minority & Women Owned Businesses, and the EDC. Instructors will bring presentations and materials specifically designed to help women entrepreneurs grow their businesses, and to find funding specifically for women-owned businesses. This workshop will provide women with clear and practical knowledge to battle difficult business challenges, making their businesses stronger.

Space is limited; please reserve seats early to ensure availability. Date: Wednesday, March 25th, 9 a.m.—2:30 p.m. at Brickworks. Cost: $55 includes tuition, lunch and refreshments – scholarships are available.
