DreamBuilder Program
Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce's - Women Starting Businesses: The DreamBuilder Project
The Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (AZHCC) is an advocate for entrepreneurial women and invests in those interested in starting a business or growing an existing business. The AZHCC has officially partnered with Arizona State University's Thunderbird School of Global Management for the proven 13-step process for creating an effective business plan, with enhanced modules to finance and expand their business. The program has been a major success and continues to expand throughout Arizona, Utah, Nevada, the Navajo Nation, and Southern California.
The AZHCC's DreamBuilder program is easy to navigate, convenient, engaging, and fun, and the modules are completed incrementally, in steps, and over time. The modules take a combined total of approximately 25 to 40 hours to complete. The goal at the end of the program is to have a finished business plan the participant can immediately use to seek out new business opportunities. Additionally, upon the successful completion of the program, the participant will receive the following:
• A new laptop
• One-on-one business assistance
• Reimbursement for legitimizing their business by way of a Limited Liability Company (LLC) or similar business filing
• One-year basic membership to the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and discounts on signature events
PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY
• Women Entrepreneurs
• Women Business Owners (Start-Up)
