Women-Owned Businesses Survey

You are invited to participate in the first North Bay Women-Owned Business Survey – an Initiative of the Sonoma County Economic Development Board in partnership with the North Bay Business Journal and North Bay Chambers of Commerce.

For the purpose of this survey, a 'Woman-Owned Business' is defined as a business whereby a woman possesses 51 percent or more of the stock or equity in the business.

A Woman-Owned Business includes those firms with and without paid employees, and thus firms without paid employees include sole proprietors (self-employed individuals) and partners of unincorporated businesses that do not have any other employees on the payroll.

The results will be presented to local business groups and networks at the North Bay Business Journal’s ‘Women in Business Gala Awards’ on June 21st, as well as the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors and other groups.

This survey takes less than 10 minutes to complete and all data disclosed in this survey will be kept strictly confidential.
