First virtual Informational Session will be held May 18, 2021
WHAT: Small and minority businesses in the Maryland/Washington D.C. Metro are invited to explore an exciting opportunity to start a retail or grab-and-go food and beverage business at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.
Launch Pad BWI is an “internship” concession program that provides an opportunity for area business owners to participate in the airport’s retail program for a limited time. These entrepreneurs have access to operating a business with a low investment, business resources, and ongoing business development training.
Piloted in 2017, Launch Pad has welcomed small and minority businesses to the airport, including Fran’s Organic Bodycare and Fashion Spa House. Proposals for the 2021 program are now being accepted.
Learn more at the Launch Pad BWI 2021 Informational Session on May 18. The free virtual event will be hosted in partnership with Fraport Maryland, BWI Marshall Airport, and The Nelson Ideation Group (TNIG).
