Community Calendar

Blueprint is a complimentary program offered by the WT Enterprise Center in partnership with America’s SBDC at WTAMU. Blueprint utilizes a visual chart to provide the framework for an entrepreneur to understand how to create, evaluate, and refine their business model while focusing on their value proposition.

The program will be led by both WT Enterprise Center coaches and America’s SBDC at WTAMU consultants. This blend of coaches and consultants provides both the technical components in business creation while also focusing on the entrepreneur journey being embarked upon.
