Century Biz Challenge Applicants To See Potential Business Location
March 15, 2015
Potential applicants in the $25,000 Century Business Challenge will have a chance to learn more about the potential home for their new business this week.
Interested participants are invited to visit the Century Business Center on Tuesday afternoon from 5:15 until 5:45 p.m. to see the spaces that are available in the facility, a closed school, on Pond Street. The tour will be held just prior to a 6 p.m. Business Concept Workshop.
Prizes for the winner of the Century Business Challenge include space at the Century Business Center at a lease rate of $1 per year, with the possibility of an extension of that rate for two more years based on the company’s performance. They will also receive $25,000 in operating funds from the Studer Institute. And the Century Town Council has recently approved offering the same $1 per year lease rate at the Century Business Center for the second place finisher.
The final application deadline is March 31.
The Century Business Challenge is part of an economic development partnership of the Haas Center, the Town of Century and the Studer Institute. Applications and more information about the business challenge can be found at www.CenturyBusinessChallenge.com.
