The purpose is to help aspiring Native American Entrepreneurs in Wisconsin kickstart their entrepreneurial journey with up-front support, guidance, mentoring, and technical assistance through a workshop around the 10-Step Business Planning Guide and the Pitch Anything S.T.R.O.N.G. framework. These workshops will help prepare you to start writing your winning business plan as you look to secure funding, pitch to investors, or potential business partners. Are you ready to pitch your best stuff for the chance at $5,000?
The Wisconsin Native Business Plan Pitch Contest is open to ALL NATIVE AMERICAN ENTREPRENEURS in the state of Wisconsin. The Business Plan Pitch Contest is free to join, there is no cost to participate. We are providing two $5,000 awards to the winners of the pitch contest, as long as they meet the requirements. The requirements are very simple, see below.
