Applications are now open for the second cohort of BuildingEnergy Access, a new initiative to support the work of women and minority-owned business enterprises by connecting them with the resources of the NESEA community. In this cohort-based program, business owners receive custom business development services, attend industry events for education and networking, receive marketing opportunities through a spotlight program, and participate in a business-owner peer group to hone their triple bottom lines practices (people, planet, and prosperity).
