Grants available to organizations boosting entrepreneurs’ success

Organizations that support Wisconsin entrepreneurs will be able to apply for the latest round of Entrepreneurship Partner Grants from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) beginning Aug.12. The deadline for applications is Sept. 6.

Grant amounts will vary but will likely range from $50,000 to $200,000. The grants are awarded to programs based on factors such as the number of entrepreneurs served, the cost effectiveness, and the impact on improving the entrepreneurial journey in Wisconsin.

Programs focusing on traditionally underserved populations— such as people of color, women, the LGBTQ+ community, veterans, and rural residents —are encouraged to apply. Organizations who have been previously awarded an EPG and are currently managing an EPG program are eligible to apply.

WEDC will announce grant award winners later this year.
