Creates the New York state entrepreneurial training act
This bill creates a state-funded program to provide grants for business training and support. It directly helps small business owners - especially New York State-certified minority/women-owned businesses (minimum 20%) and military veterans (minimum 10%) - by requiring applicants to submit a business plan to receive funding. The program allocates $5 million to large cities (population ≥1 million) and $500,000 to smaller cities/towns, using most of the funds to award $10,000 grants to successful program graduates after training. The Empire State Development Corporation administers the program and sets competitive criteria for grant awards.
