In terms of our budget, we run approximately $75,000 annually. This is for 2.25 full-time employees who are in the program.
We definitely use the money to develop trade missions. We work with our provincial counterparts to get as many women entrepreneurs who may be interested in trade missions as we can, and then we take them down to WBENC. When we're there, we work with one of our consulates or posts in that region to try to get business matchmaking, which means we may hire a service provider to help the businesswomen actually connect with Fortune 500 companies, so they can meet them and hopefully secure contracts.
We also host, for instance, sessions for these women entrepreneurs. Where we spend our money is very much related to our events like the trade missions. We also host store tours as well as networking receptions. So it's geared towards using the money as cost effectively as possible to get many women entrepreneurs onto that international stage and help them meet with the company that is the best fit, so that they can secure their contracts with them.
