Having a business idea is great. Knowing how to build, manage, and sustain it is what truly matters. The 50-State Business Start-Up Challenge ensures that participants receive the education and training they need to launch successful businesses.
This program doesn’t just focus on what to do—it also teaches what not to do. Many businesses fail because of simple mistakes that could have been avoided with the right training.
This challenge isn’t about competition—it’s about empowerment. Participants gain real-world skills, learn from experienced entrepreneurs, and leave with a solid business structure and strategy.
This program is crucial because:
At the Brandon Owens Foundation, we believe that knowledge is the foundation of success. Many aspiring entrepreneurs, particularly Forgotten Leaders and Next Generation Leaders, have incredible ideas but lack the fundamental business education necessary to structure, launch, and sustain a business. That’s why we proudly partner with The 50 State Business Start-Up Challenge, an initiative designed to provide comprehensive business training to participants across the country.
This program ensures that every participant is equipped with the necessary skills to turn their ideas into structured, viable businesses. Through business planning, financial literacy, legal structuring, and market strategy courses, we give individuals the foundation they need to avoid common pitfalls and thrive in the competitive business world.
For Forgotten Leaders, this program is a bridge to economic self-sufficiency, offering an alternative to unstable, low-paying jobs or unemployment. For Next Generation Leaders, it ensures they start strong, understanding how to manage risk, attract investors, and scale their businesses for long-term success. Together, we are creating a nation of resilient, knowledgeable entrepreneurs who can contribute to their communities and the economy.
