More than 70 Milwaukee  area business owners have taken their companies to the next level by participating in SBA’s Emerging Leader’s Initiative.  This free, intensive “Streetwise MBA” course  is being held in Milwaukee for the ninth year.
The Emerging Leaders training focuses on small, poised-for-growth companies with potential for job creation. The seven-month intensive, executive entrepreneurship education series includes approximately 100 hours of classroom time per participant and provides the opportunity for small business owners to work with experienced mentors, attend workshops and develop connections with their peers, city leaders and financial communities.
