OSTI ID:5434370
Small, minority-owned businesses confront traditional and special problems in developing and maintaining an energy related enterprise. To help these businesses overcome these problems, the US Department of Energy's Office of Minority Economic Impact recently asked the Argonne National Laboratory to prepare a Guidebook to identify supporting resources and organizations that can help minority businesses transform an idea for an energy related business opportunity into a commercially viable product or service. By utilizing these available resources, the minority entrepreneur's chances of developing a successful energy related business can be improved. Based on the Guidebook this paper describes the nature of such opportunities and identifies the types of assistance available to commercialize, finance and market the minority-owned energy business.
