During the six week business training series participants will acquire important skills and receive tools necessary for business success. At the conclusion of the training sessions participants will have the opportunity to submit a written business plan and present their idea to the judges.

The competition is sponsored by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development's Community Business Launch and the Norton Industrial Development Authority.
