Celebrate the Entrepreneur in You!

The Women’s Business Network (WBN) coordinates many of the training opportunities and events sponsored by the Northeast Entrepreneur Fund.  Female NEF clients automatically become members of the Women’s Business Network, but membership is open to any women business person.  Benefits of membership include:

• Quarterly WBN e-newsletter

• Networking opportunities with other women entrepreneurs

• Educational events featuring successful women business owners

• Classes and workshops for aspiring and current women-owned businesses

WBN members enjoy these benefits along with many other women entrepreneurs in northeast Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin who have worked with NEF through its training, consulting and lending programs.

The purpose of the Women’s Business Network is to:

• Help women start, stabilize or expand their own small businesses

• Raise public awareness of women entrepreneurs

• Be an advocate for women’s business ownership issues

The WBN is one of more than 100 similar women’s business centers funded by the U.S. Small Business Administration, and the only one serving our region.

WBN members receive periodic communications from us on upcoming WBN-sponsored events and opportunities.  If you’d like to become a WBN member—or if you have ideas, comments or questions—contact us at 218-623-5738 or 800-422-0374 ext. 5738, carmenb@entrepreneurfund.org.
