Office of women's business ownership

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Office of Entrepreneurial Development awarded a $150,000 Project Grant under the Women's Business Ownership Assistance program (CFDA 59.043) to the Nevada Business Opportunity Fund, a non-profit organization, on Sep 30, 2023. This grant will fund the delivery of training, counseling, and technical assistance to support small businesses owned and controlled by women, including those who are socially and economically disadvantaged, in the Las Vegas, NV area. The goal is to help remove discriminatory barriers these women entrepreneurs face in accessing capital, markets, management, and other critical resources for business growth and expansion. This award is part of the SBA's efforts to foster entrepreneurship and economic development for underserved populations through its network of Women's Business Centers across the country.
