Entrepreneurship Partner Grant application reopens

Groups working to support Wisconsin’s entrepreneurs and remove barriers to success have a second chance to receive a new Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. (WEDC) grant, according to a release from WEDC. The Entrepreneurship Partner Grant (EPG) program is intended for nonprofits, communities, and other eligible organizations that are working to support entrepreneurs — including groups such as people of color, women, the LGBTQ community, and rural residents who may not have had access to the same educational and funding opportunities as others. The program’s grants can help these nonprofits pay for things such as entrepreneurship training, mentors, seed accelerators, technical assistance, and more. Applications are being accepted until Dec. 2.
