Local First of the Capital Region, the area's only alliance of local and independent businesses, will host their second annual Local Lift: A symposium for businesses, individuals and community organizations in May.
This event will offer panel discussions and break-out sessions designed to help your businesses address challenges and be more successful.
Local First is now soliciting ideas for panel discussions and speakers that the local business community would find to be of the greatest value. Do you have any suggestions?
- What issues or topics do you need to learn more about for your business?
- What skills could they teach you that would help your business grow/sustain?
- Who would you like to hear from or meet?
- Most importantly, what would be offered that would make it worth your time?
Please follow this link to a survey to share your ideas and feedback. They will be very helpful as they plan what they are hoping will be a valuable event for local business owners like yourself. Please respond by January 18, 2013 to have your name entered into a drawing to win one of five (Value $5) gift cards to local restaurants.
