Women & Technology dba North Dakota Women's Business Center
The Prosperity Project
A narrative project that makes women's entrepreneurship visible, credible, and investable by replacing zero-sum assumptions with economic framing that strengthens opportunity, legitimacy, and shared prosperity.
North Dakota women entrepreneurs often rely on personal savings and face biased expectations that undervalue caregiving realities and rural business models. This project addresses these systemic barriers by building a narrative-change platform that makes women's economic contributions visible and credible to lenders, investors, sponsors, and communities. By combining storytelling of economic impact and public engagement, the solution shifts how opportunity and legitimacy are granted, fostering shared prosperity across rural and mixed rural-urban economies.
