Women Entrepreneurship Strategy (WES) Ecosystem Fund

About This Opportunity

Business support delivered through organizations: training, mentorship, networking and other services designed to help women entrepreneurs start, grow and scale.

Eligibility Criteria

Women entrepreneurs access services through WES-funded organizations rather than applying to the federal ecosystem fund as individual businesses. The federal strategy was renewed with $173.7 million over five years in June 2026.
