ON behalf of:

The National Women's Business Council is a non-partisan federal advisory council created to serve as an independent source of advice and counsel to the President, Congress, and the U.S. Small Business Administration on economic issues of importance to women business owners. As such - we look to publish best in class research on women entrepreneurs, be it obstacles to obtaining capital, involvement in the STEM fields or evaluating their social networks. Areas of continuing interest are listed below and have been chosen because they are researchable, show the status or role of small businesses, can be a catalyst for further research, or may provide policymaking insight.

We are accepting proposals for the following projects:
