From the article: "With the Trump administration’s harsh rhetoric and policies coming into effect, it’s a difficult year to be queer or a business owner. Kristina Wynne hopes to alleviate some of that.
"Now entering its sixth year, the Illinois LGBT Chamber of Commerce LGBTQ+ Biz Bootcamp aims to lift up and prepare LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs for a successful future. The program leaves participants with a full business plan they can use to gain sponsors and capital in the future.
"In 2019, Wynne was working for the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program, which is where she learned more about supporting business owners and their growth. Then-LGBT Chamber of Commerce Director, Jerome’ Holston, reached and asked her about potentially starting an LGBT-focused business program through the Chamber, which she accepted. "
