The Wisconsin Technology Council has organized a free session to help entrepreneurs of all types learn more about the basics of launching, funding, and growing a young business. The State of Wisconsin Initiative to Fast Track Entrepreneurs (SWIFT) event will take place Friday, Feb. 9 in Kenosha.

Mentors will speak and answer questions on areas such as legal steps to starting a company, funding sources for such firms, and public resources generally available to entrepreneurs. Attendees will engage in an exercise aimed at bringing forth their ideas and any challenges that lie ahead.

This workshop will be held at the UW–Parkside Student Center’s Oak Room, located at 930 Wood Drive. Registration, breakfast, and networking begin at 8:30 a.m., with the program running from 9 a.m. to noon. Click here to register.

SWIFT is made possible through a grant from the U.S. Small Business Administration and supported by U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin. The goal of the statewide program is to connect entrepreneurs of all types with resources, advice, and networking through the Tech Council and others to help them succeed.
