In honor of Asheville Small Business Week, the A-B Tech Small Business Center will hold a series of seminars April 21st – April 25th at the college’s main campus, and at the Enka site designed to provide current small business owners and entrepreneurs with valuable information to aid in the development of their businesses.
Seminars will focus on several relevant and popular topics such as: “encore entrepreneurship” and starting a business in later years, the real-life implications and applications of 3-D printing, alternative financing resources, and business planning.
The culminating event of the week is the annual JumpStart Small Business Expo from 4 – 6:30 p.m. April 24th in the Haynes Conference Center in Enka.
