The world is celebrating Global Entrepreneurship Week<\/a><\/strong> this week (16-22 November), and what better place to be than UW-Whitewater for such an event. The Collegiate Entrepreneurs Organization<\/a><\/strong> student group is co-sponsoring the 2009 Wisconsin Youth Entrepreneurs’ Conference<\/a><\/strong>. The university was awarded a $4.7 million grant from the Economic Development Administration to fund the creation of the Whitewater Technology Park<\/a><\/strong>, which will provide business research and development space for the region. There is a lot of entrepreneurial activity going on right here!<\/p>\n

The Library has been actively involved in providing support the development and integration of entrepreneurship into the curriculum. The current showcase in the library’s lobby displays just a sampling of the book titles that have been purchased on the topic, with many more to be found using HAL CAT<\/a><\/strong>. Also, we have plenty of online resources to aid in the research of new business development in general, like ABI\/Inform<\/a><\/strong> and Business Source Premier<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, if you have that entrepreneurial spirit and want to research the prospect of launching your own business, make sure to come talk to us. The aforementioned resources (plus many more)<\/a><\/strong> also contain industry information and market research that can be used to make a sound business decision. Not sure where to start? Just contact me (Kyle) at naffk@uww.edu<\/a><\/strong> – I’d be happy to talk to you about doing new business research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
