​October is National Women’s Small Business Month. In addition, this year marks the 30th anniversary of H.R. 5050!  H.R. 5050 was the first piece of legislation that was put into place to recognize and assist women business owners.  It had four main components:
  • Eliminated the requirement in state laws that women must have a man relative sign a business loan
  • Established the Women’s Business Center Program
  • Required the U.S. Census Bureau include C corporations when presenting data on women-owned firms
  • Creation of the National Women’s Business Council

Jesson & Rains is proud to represent and work for numerous women-owned businesses.  Charlotte is an exciting place for women entrepreneurs.  The city of Charlotte was recently named #1 City in America For Female-Owned Business Growth, according to this article: http://www.charlottestories.com/charlotte-ranked-1-city-america-female-owned-business-growth/.  In addition, "America now has 11.6 million women-owned businesses that employ almost 9 million people and generate $1.7 trillion in revenue per year."  
 
Our very own Jesson & Rains partner, Kelly Rains Jesson, is a member of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO).  Founded in 1975, NAWBO is “the unified voice  of over 10 million women-owned businesses in the United States representing the fastest growing segment of the economy.”  NAWBO propels women entrepreneurs into economic, social and political spheres of power worldwide.
