Think Downtown Antigo For Your Business Venture With The Help Of The New Downtown Antigo’s Entrepreneur Grant Program

The Langlade County Economic Development Corporation is now accepting applications for the new Downtown Antigo Entrepreneur Grant Program.

Funds may be awarded for up to 25% of eligible expenses up to a grant maximum of $15,000.00.
