Business Workshops Build Skills for Questa Entrepreneurs

Questa
  • Local Champion: Questa Economic Development Fund
  • Date Funded: May 1, 2025
  • Grant Amount: $15,000

Questa business owners struggle to access professional development opportunities without closing their shops and traveling to larger towns for training. After a series of successful pilot workshops, leaders at the Questa Economic Development Fund came up with a plan to expand business education and training locally. LOR’s funding helped the Questa Economic Development Fund bring professional trainers to Questa for a comprehensive series of workshops covering essential topics like marketing, tax preparation, brand development, and social media strategy. With access to free professional training, local entrepreneurs can now build critical skills to help their businesses thrive in Questa’s growing economy.

This project is fiscally sponsored by Localogy.
