About this Event
This event brings together partners who are committed to offering real, practical support for East Side business owners. The focus is on helping you navigate funding options, access technical solutions, plan for future growth, and prepare for unexpected challenges, including those related to construction or changing market conditions.
You’ll hear clear guidance on topics such as financial readiness, legal resources, adjusting your business model during disruptions, and knowing where to turn when you need support. The goal is to equip you with tools you can use right away and to connect you with resources that understand the realities of running a business on the East Side.
This event is a partnership of ESABA, ESNDC, LEDC, NDC, Rooted Philanthropic and the St. Thomas Family Business Center.
In addition to the learning sessions, you’ll have dedicated time to meet one-on-one with resource partners who can help you take next steps that fit your business, long beyond the event. This is a chance to build relationships, ask questions, and explore what ongoing support could look like for you.
This event includes lunch.
