  Nebraska Microenterprise Represented at National Conference
 

May, 2003

   
 

The Association for Enterprise Development (AEO) held it's annual meeting in Denver, CO in May 2003. Over 650 individuals, with interest in services to micro businesses, attended from throughout the world. Nebraska was well represented with staff from GROW, NCDC, SELF, LAP, REAP and NMPF attending.

   
 

Gene Rahn of the Rural Enterprise Assistance Project and Rose Jaspersen of the Nebraska Microenterprise Partnership Fund conducted a workshop on collaborative lending. Gene covered his experiences and techniques in approaching and working with banks. Rose discussed the new Microenterprise Information Referral System (MIRS) for building long-term relationships between programs, banks and other community leaders to help make linkages for micro businesses to available services. The workshop was well received by participants, both those working in the field and program directors.
