This all day conference includes a panel discussion with financial lenders as well as a panel with four small businesses focusing on the question, “What does your business want to be when it grows up?” Attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of the financial resources available to your small businesses that can help it get off the ground, grow to increase production or employee numbers, purchase new equipment, or transition to new ownership.

Afternoon breakout sessions will follow the structure of the business life cycle (development, startup, growth, expansion, succession), providing attendees resources and programs at each level of the cycle. Attendees will have access to one-on-one or small group discussions with capital and service providers that allow them to go deeply explore answers to their questions specific to their business.
