There’s no place to start and build a business like Goshen County. (In fact, we have a whole list of reasons why you should—including testimonials from your fellow entrepreneurs—right here.)

In the spirit of celebrating and supporting Goshen County’s entrepreneurial ecosystem, we’ve partnered with Eastern Wyoming College (EWC) to offer two exciting opportunities for startups and new businesses in our area.

The first—“Entrepreneurship 101” classes at EWC—is designed to help you fine-tune your business skills, develop a solid business plan, and learn what you need to succeed as a new business.

The second—our Goshen County Start-Up Challenge—provides a platform from which Goshen County entrepreneurs can develop, plan, and launch their companies. (Taking “Entrepreneurship 101” at EWC is an ideal way to prepare to compete!)
