North Carolina is a PRO BUSINESS state and in fact is ranked the number one business state.

So where do those entrepreneurs go after a sale or a failure?

What do they do next?

– Are they serial entrepreneurs?

– Are they portfolio entrepreneurs like George Taylor?

– Do they become investors?

– Do they become mentors?

– Do they become consultants?

ALL of this is to point out, what can YOU learn from these experienced entrepreneurs?

Can you convince them to become your cofounder?

Can you convince them to become an angel investor in YOUR startup?

Can you convince them to become a board member?

Please join us for this event to help grow YOUR company with the stories of other entrepreneurs and how you can learn from the successes or scars of others who were BOLD enough to be entrepreneurs before you took the journey.
