$16.9m awarded to help local entrepreneurs and small businesses

A team of entrepreneurs just awarded $16.9m in Business Scholarships to help local entrepreneurs and small business owners across North America and Europe, and they’re not stopping there.

The Entrepreneur Empowerment Institute’s mission is to reverse the failure rate of Small Business across the globe. It does this by partnering with key entrepreneurs and sharing meaningful content, primarily through Master Classes online, all without a fee.

Launched on 1st July, and running all month, 27 entrepreneurs and business leaders are granting some $172,657 in scholarships per person as part of the first ever Million Dollar Scholarship Giveaway. Business Owners and Entrepreneurs can pick one, many or all 27 scholarships.

Just to be clear, 27 is not the total number of Scholarships available - there are 27 Scholarships available per person!

At the very minimum, these entrepreneurs will give away at least $10m in Scholarships. Very likely, the final total will be tens of millions - and nothing could make them happier!

“The more we give away, the more small businesses will succeed, particularly in these challenging times” said Tom Matzen, Chief Movement Maker at Entrepreneur Empowerment Institute.

“These Scholarships are specifically for business owners and entrepreneurs that want to not only survive these crazy times, but come out thriving. So we’ve called this first ever event the Survive and Thrive or Crash and Burn Million Dollar Scholarship Giveaway.”

The team includes entrepreneurs from ten countries across the globe including Canada and the United States.

“The time to step up and help is now, not once they’ve lost their business” said Matzen. “Business is the heart of local communities and they need our help. Now.”
