Small Business Workshop - February 2020

The Greater Atlantic City Chamber, New Jersey Economic Development Authority, and Stockton Small Business Development Center (NJSBDC) will host a small business development workshop on Thursday, February 20 at Fannie Lou Hamer Event Room in Stockton University Atlantic City Academic Center from noon to 2 PM.    The collection of speakers and organizations will provide guidance on how to register your business with the state, financial resources, and best practices for small business owners and entrepreneurs in the Atlantic City area. 

“Between marketing their products and services, managing employees, maintaining their spaces, and keeping their books in order, small business owners have a lot on their plates and work incredibly hard. That can make it challenging to find time to learn about the many resources that are available to help grow their businesses,” said NJEDA Director of Small Business Services Christina Fuentes. “We are excited to meet businesspeople where they are and organize our resource partners so they can highlight their products and services.”
