The Coulee Region Entrepreneurial Initiative - Business Plan Competition can help you turn your manufacturing or service business idea (start-up, new product, or spin-off) into a reality through business plan assistance, professional advice, and financial resources. A successful business plan includes a detailed description of the business, its product, operations, and an analysis of the market to be reached. It requires an extensive focus on finances including start-up costs, daily operations, and net income.
Winners are eligible for:

- Potential for rent deferral at the Coulee Region Business Center-Small Business Incubator (pending available space)
- Zero-interest loan awards of up to $3,000 with implementation of business plan within six months of the competition (number of and amount of loans to be determined on a case-by-case basis)
