Affiliated with the Kauffman Foundation’s FastTrac® program, the Wyoming County Business Center customizes its curriculum to meet the unique needs of local entrepreneurs. Through access to low-interest financing, ongoing technical support, and a mentorship network, graduates emerge prepared to launch and grow sustainable businesses.

Registration is open for the next program cycle, which begins August 25, 2026, at the Ag & Business Center in Warsaw. Classes will be held every Tuesday from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. for ten weeks.
