Creates the New York state entrepreneurial training act
S 6741 establishes the New York State Entrepreneurial Training Act, creating a grant program to support and train entrepreneurial candidates. The Empire State Development Corporation formulates the program, which is then administered by individual participating cities and towns, awarding grants competitively to eligible applicants who submit business plans. The bill mandates that at least 20% of participants be certified minority and women's business enterprises and 10% be military veterans. It also allocates specific funding to cities and towns based on population, with funds designated for both program operation and direct grants to successful graduates.
