BGS Attorney Carole Clark Isakson Promotes Women in Business
April 18, 2022 | Carole Clark Isakson
On the evening of March 31 BGS attorney Carole Clark Isakson had the pleasure of presenting a two hour seminar on company formation and other issues to WomenVenture clients.
WomenVenture is a Minneapolis based entity that helps women of all ages, cultures, races and income build profitable and sustainable businesses by providing needed education, training, funding and ongoing support. Isakson’s presentation was part of one of the education programs available to attendees; during the session the attendees learned about the most common Minnesota business structures. They learned about C and S corporations, sole proprietorships, general partnerships, limited partnerships and limited liability companies. Trademarks and other intellectual property rights were discussed, and resulted in a great discussion about tradenames, entity names, trademarks, and where those concepts connect (or don’t connect).
Isakson has volunteered her legal expertise to WomenVenture for several years now, working with WomenVenture or directly with the women starting businesses. Since its inception in 1978 WomenVenture has provided more than 104,000 women with the tools and resource to achieve economic success, and Carole is proud to be a small and recent part of that.
