BDCC BIZCONNECT

UPCOMING EVENTS

BDCC BizConnect is a regional business support program powered by the Brattleboro Development Credit Corporation to help entrepreneurs, startups, and small businesses thrive in Southeastern Vermont. This free monthly meetup series brings together rural businesspeople who do not otherwise have easy access to business organizations – so they may foster connections, build community, and access peer support to solve commonly faced problems.

Events are hosted throughout the region with the support and co-design of local partner organizations and community champions.
