Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Nevada's Women-Led Ventures
The Grant Program to Support Women-led Ventures, funded by the Banking Institution, is designed to empower women entrepreneurs and leaders in Nevada and beyond. For Nevada specifically, the priority outcomes focus on driving economic growth, fostering innovation, and promoting diversity in the state's business landscape. The Nevada Governor's Office of Economic Development (GOED) plays a crucial role in supporting these objectives by providing resources and infrastructure for businesses to thrive.
One of the primary target outcomes for Nevada is the growth of women-led businesses in the tech and innovation sectors, particularly in the Las Vegas area. According to the Nevada Small Business Development Center, there has been a significant increase in women-owned businesses in the state, with a 14% growth rate between 2019 and 2020. The grant program aims to further accelerate this trend by providing funding and support to women-led ventures in emerging industries such as renewable energy, cybersecurity, and advanced manufacturing.
Another key outcome is the development of businesses that cater to Nevada's unique tourism and entertainment industry. With the state's economy heavily reliant on tourism, women-led businesses that offer innovative products and services in this sector are well-positioned for success. The grant program prioritizes projects that showcase Nevada's distinct cultural and entertainment offerings, such as those that promote the state's rich Native American heritage or capitalize on the growing demand for experiential tourism.
The rural-urban divide is a significant demographic feature in Nevada, with many frontier counties facing unique challenges in terms of access to resources and infrastructure. To address this, the grant program also prioritizes outcomes that promote economic development in rural areas, such as the growth of women-led businesses in agriculture, outdoor recreation, and healthcare. The Nevada Department of Agriculture, for example, has initiatives in place to support women farmers and ranchers, and the grant program can complement these efforts by providing funding for innovative projects.
In terms of specific metrics, the grant program will track the number of women-led businesses that receive funding, the number of jobs created, and the overall economic impact of the funded projects. The program will also monitor the diversity of the businesses supported, with a focus on promoting inclusivity and equity in the state's business ecosystem.
To achieve these priority outcomes, the grant program will provide funding ranging from $10,000 to $50,000 to support business growth, innovation, and expansion. Applicants are encouraged to describe their business or nonprofit and share their vision, with judges looking for passion, clear purpose, and a compelling plan for success.
