Last Chance to Learn about Funding for
Regional Transformation!
|
The new Transformation Grant program promotes transformational development in the region’s ability to compete in the global marketplace through leadership, innovation, entrepreneurship, and workforce development. In order to foster the development and submission of transformational proposals, especially in the region’s rural communities and minority and underserved populations, the Piedmont Triad Partnership is hosting a series of workshops around the region designed to both share information about this grant program and to assist applicants in developing collaborations and potential transformation projects.
Attendance at one workshop by at least one partner in each application is required. Remaining Application deadline dates: March 19 & May 21, 2008.
