What is Women-Owned business?

Federal and state government agencies do not provide any special structure to register or form women-owned companies. There is no special terminology used to form a women-own company with the federal and state. But there are some special programs are available on federal, state and county levels.

There are some agencies helping promote the development of business enterprises and non-profit organizations owned and operated by minorities or women.

You can contact the following organizations for any assistance regarding women-owned business schemes and if any help or grant available.

Recommendation:

Since obtaining grants, financing or any help from the institution is not an easy process and Federal and state government agencies do not provide grants to women to help them start a business. Grants may be available from non-profits and private organizations; however, these are very rare and usually focus on helping minority and women in economically disadvantaged communities. However, there are a limited number of loans available to specifically to help women start and expand their businesses. So, instead of just simply waiting to get it approved to form or register women-owned-business you can setup a home based business and can join any affiliation or re-sellers program to help you.

“Grants may not be required to pay back but very hard to get and private financing may be very expensive and may take forever to pay it back with interest. There is no such registration available with either secretary of state or division of incorporation”
