ABOUT THE PRESENTATION

The Washington Metropolitan Area is made up of an assortment of jurisdictions and when starting a business, it can be a bit overwhelming which jurisdiction to locate your business. What resources are available in each? What incentives are offered by each jurisdiction, and will my business thrive in a particular area? Many of these questions are on entrepreneurs’ minds when looking for a business location. In this dynamic session, learn about the resources Arlington and Virginia have for businesses and why Virginia is consistently ranked one of the top states to do business.

ABOUT THE RISE AND GRIND SPEAKER SERIES

Equality Chamber of Commerce and the Equality Chamber Foundation strive to serve its members and the business community by providing educational and informational seminars. Our goal is to gather experts in our community to discuss topics critical to small businesses and organizations. 

We believe it is our responsibility to offer the community an opportunity to hear from experts so that they can make decisions based on the facts and facilitate factually-based discussions. We want to be a conduit through which the community can obtain information, drive discussions, and make their own decisions.

The Rise and Grind Speaker Series allows you to keep up on current events and topics of interest locally and regionally. Business owners, organizational leaders, HR professionals, marketers, and small businesses will find these topics helpful as they are designed to educate and inform about subjects that are relevant to your local business and non-profit community. In addition, business owners and organizational leaders can promote their business before the workday even begins. Also, these breakfasts focus on networking and give attendees the chance to exchange business cards and develop new prospects.
