Join WESST Farmington Women’s Business Center and NM Manufacturing Extension Partnership for Manufacturing Days as we celebrate women in Manufacturing. Manufacturing has traditionally been a male-dominated industry—fewer than one third of manufacturing employees are women. Working women who are moms and leaders within their family and community often go unrecognized and balancing of work life is particularly tough on women. Though there have been improvements in recent years, women are still under represented in the manufacturing industry.

NM EPSCoR works to support the next generation of STEM professionals in New Mexico. In the current award, the NM SMART Grid Center, we are pairing project students with New Mexico organizations through our Externship program.  

Women business owners are generally overworked and under appreciated in the business world. Some 48% of women reported struggling with the high expectations of being a small business owner, and studies have shown that women are more prone to experiencing burnout than men.

Are you an indigenous woman that is looking to start a business? Are you ready to build and develop your business roadmap that will lead to creating a business plan? If so, then join us virtually for this class! The business planning process includes diagnosing the business internal strengths and weaknesses, improving its efficiency, working out how it will compete against other competitors, and setting milestones for progress so they can be measured.
