WORKSHOP IN BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, INC. WIBO presents
Affiliate Partner Program
Our vision is to help people from low income and underserved communities across America utilize their entrepreneurial spirit to create a path to economic independence.
Our focus is on removing the barriers to entrepreneurial success that often exist for minorities, women, veterans and the recently incarcerated.
We seek Affiliate Partners that share our mission to help enterprising men and women from underserved communities develop economic self-sufficiency through entrepreneurship.
The WIBO16-Week Workshop fits well within a range of technical assistance services to support access to knowledge, networks, and capital. We encourage Affiliate Partners to create additional program events that will support graduates.
Through the WIBO Affiliate Partner Program, you get a turnkey entrepreneurial training and support program. We work with you to build capacity locally to implement the WIBO16-Week Workshop and other supplemental programming. Best of all, you get to leverage our 50+ years of experience.
We can help you get up and running as quickly as your organization wants to move. The most lengthy part of the process is generally the recruitment of volunteers and marketing
