Wbc has provided thousands of participants with high quality resources for business development, both in person and virtually, with an emphasis on spanish and armenian language resources, due to the needs of the local community in the canoga park area of los angeles. Educational workshops led by industry professionals are offered to participants, addressing topics from finance to social media marketing to emotional resilience, and specific programs have been developed to address fashion and restaurant industries. Fast-paced innovation and strategic use of technology has become a hallmark of the wbc program, and its marketing to women and bipoc entrepreneurs, and responsiveness to all client needs for curriculum and event development, has made this one of new's most powerful tools for the economic mobility of its clients.
