DVS to present introduction to entrepreneurship class at the Albuquerque National Guard Armory

The New Mexico Veterans Business Outreach Center (VBOC)—the veterans business development division of the New Mexico Department of Veterans’ Services—is presenting a “Boots to Business: Reboot” training class February 15-16 in Albuquerque for current and former New Mexico National Guard members who are interested in starting their own business or growing an existing operation. It is also open to spouses and widows of Guard members.

This free two-day introduction to entrepreneurship course is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Albuquerque New Mexico National Guard Armory, at 600 Wyoming Boulevard NE, Room 230B.

Attendees will learn key elements of small business ownership, techniques for evaluating the feasibility of business concepts, and the steps needed to develop an all-important business plan—a “must” for anyone looking to start or expand a business.

There will also be an introduction to a broad spectrum of entrepreneurial business concepts, how to access resources available for obtaining start-up or expansion capital, technical assistance, and how to pursue federal contracting opportunities.
