ACQUIRE is a new networking series that will bring like-minded entrepreneurs together to connect and hear from other professionals about timely topics. The city's Department of Workforce and Small Business Development, along with the 1 Million Cups program, hopes that local business leaders will attend to acquire information for success.
The first in the series of meetings will be Thursday, January 16th, at the Lima Public Library.
"It's meant for people who are small business owners, entrepreneurs, or people who are aspiring to be small business owners or entrepreneurs as well. The ACQUIRE events are going to hold those quarterly, and the reason for them is to get information out to those small business owners and entrepreneurs on just different things that they should look out for. Our first one is going to talk more on the legal end about making sure they have an LLC, if they need one, or how do they structure their business. And to just make sure that they don't get into any trouble when they're setting their business up," explained Darren Bass, 1 Million Cups Lima.
The event is free and open to the public.
The first in the series of meetings will be Thursday, January 16th, at the Lima Public Library, beginning at 6 p.m. with local attorney Jamesha Williamson speaking. It is free and open to the public.
