October Small Business Lunch & Learn

     BUSINESS BITES: THE YEAR OF GROWTH

             Learn • Connect • Implement • Grow

Over the past year, we have created opportunities for entrepreneurs and small-business owners to learn, network, connect with resources, strengthen their business strategies, explore funding opportunities, and prepare for growth. We have brought the information and resources to the table—now it is time to turn those connections into action and those strategies into measurable results.

Welcome to the Year of Growth!

Over the next 13 months, we are going another level. Business Bites: The Year of Growth is not designed to simply give you another lecture or repeat information you have already heard. Each month will challenge you to work ON your business, complete practical action steps, address gaps that may be holding your business back, and connect with professionals who can help you move forward.

We will take the journey from IDEA → START → STABILIZE → FUND → PROFIT → CONTRACT → SCALE, with opportunities to connect with bookkeepers, financial professionals, lenders, grant professionals, business advisors, procurement resources, marketing professionals, and other experts who can help you turn knowledge into progress.

If you have attended our programs before, we want you back! Don't stop investing time into your business because you've already attended a workshop, resource fair, expo, or training. What you learned was part of the foundation. Now it's time to build on it.

And if you're new to our small-business programming, this is a great time to join the journey. You don't have to wait until everything is perfect. Come ready to learn, work, connect, and grow.
