Applications for "Mom-Entrepreneur" program in Chuvashia close August 9

Applications for the "Mom-Entrepreneur" program in Chuvashia are closing soon, with submissions accepted until August 9. The initiative helps women with children start their own businesses, even at the idea stage. Supported by the regional Ministry of Economic Development, the "My Business" center, and United Russia's "Entrepreneurship" project, participants receive training, expert consultations, and a chance to compete for grant funding. Past winners have turned hobbies into successful ventures. Notable successes include a pottery studio, a chocolate workshop, a bag production brand, a home bakery, an art studio, and an educational media project that gained federal recognition. Organizers note the program has become a real tool for supporting women's entrepreneurship and creating jobs. Results will be announced on August 21.
