The Office of Business Inclusion and Advancement is devoted to promoting the growth of small businesses in Winston-Salem. Budding entrepreneurs approach the department weekly for assistance in writing business plans and the steps involved in starting a business.
In an effort to broaden its reach, the department will host its sixth Business Plan Contest.
Each of the two winners will receive:
- $5,000 grant for startup costs
- $5,000 potential matching micro-loan
- Opportunity to apply to Small Business Loan Program
