Contest provides funding for Women in Business

Women going into business cite access to funding as one of the major obstacles.

Mirassou Winery is offering $50,000 in seed money in a contest open to potential women business owners. Act fast! The deadline is Dec. 15, 2007. (If you miss it, check back to see if they open it again in 2008, as seems likely.)

You’ll need a personal essay about yourself as a business person, and a simple business plan. (love that simplified plan! must remember to write a new post about it!)

Read all the details at Make your Dreams Come True with Mirassou.
