This year, we will be offering a more engaging and networking Town Hall style event discussing a singular focused topic – whether entering entrepreneurship is best achieved by starting a business from scratch or by acquiring an existing one. Our expert panelists, made up of both startup entrepreneurs and acquisition entrepreneurs, will delve into the nuances, advantages, and challenges of each approach. From discussing the intricacies of building a brand from the ground up to exploring the potential benefits and risks of purchasing an established business, our panelists will cover it all. And we’ll even have a Small Business Administration lender join us to share secrets on getting business loans. But the discussion won’t stop there – this event is designed to be interactive. Audience members will be part of the discussion by intermittently asking questions of the panelists, ensuring that the conversation is moving in the direction that the audience is most curious about. Whether you’re considering taking the leap into entrepreneurship or seeking guidance on your existing business ventures, this Town Hall meeting is not to be missed. Mark your calendars and come prepared to network, learn, engage, and be inspired as we navigate the complex world of entrepreneurship together. Join us for an evening of enlightenment, empowerment and exploration.
