Micro Business. BIG RESULTS.
A micro business employs nine people or fewer, and is the most common kind of private-sector business in the U.S.
And yet, only half of all small businesses will survive their first five years.
​
Let's beat the odds, together!
​
Learn from local professionals and take your business to the next level.
​
Get expert advice on topics essential to thriving as a micro business owner in an intimate group setting of no more than 20 attendees.
