关于我们

At Women's Business Center (WBC), we're inspired by women who are empowered, impassioned, and committed to success. Recognizing the challenges of an increasingly complex marketplace, we work to educate, inspire and support women entrepreneurs as they launch and grow influential, profitable businesses. As part of the ODU Institute for Innovation & Entrepreneurship (IIE), the mission of the WBC is to enable women's entrepreneurship by providing low to no cost tools for women to successfully own, operate and grow their small business, thereby creating economic opportunities and job growth by investing financially, intellectually and emotionally in the Hampton Roads community. The Women's Business Center (WBC) helps elevate women to business success through education, counseling and entrepreneurial training. Serving women across Hampton Roads, we provide seminars and individual consulting sessions for your business at all stages. To build a fruitful business, you need more than clients. You need a network of experienced professionals who believe in you-- and your vision. That's the strength, beauty, and purpose of the WBC. We are an advocate for women entrepreneurship. WBC is your partner: positioning you for business success through education, counseling, networking resources, and entrepreneurial training. All programs and services are provided on a nondiscriminatory basis.
