Please join the Offices of Minority Economic Empowerment and Regional Economic Development for a webinar exploring how to grow, invest, and increase economic opportunity for rural women owner businesses in Illinois. For the past two decades, women-owned businesses have been the fastest growing segment in the U.S. economy, growing at twice the rate of all other businesses. Historic women-owned firms will share their success stories, and highlight best practices, lessons learned, and strategies for success to help rural women own businesses thrive. This session will share practical resources and information aimed at closing the economic gap many women-owned businesses face, especially in more rural parts of the State.
