The event will bring together leading professionals to expose entrepreneurs to mastery techniques in leadership, marketing techniques, being authentic, growing their businesses, the "why" behind what each entrepreneur does, and much more.
On Friday, guests will join empowering talks that include: "Three ways to grow revenue," "How to be the authentic CEO," "The emotionally intelligent CEO" and more. Also, there will be two panels. The first, "The seven-figure sandbox" where attendees can listen to million dollar gladiators who have generated over seven-figures. Here, the guests will find out what it takes to play in that sandbox. The second one, "Get Funded" is where attendees will learn about unique ways to fund their business in today's funding climate.
On Saturday, also coined "Action Saturday," SBC will host the Stand and Deliver-Pitch Competition. Registrants will have an opportunity to pitch their businesses and could walk away with money and services. There’s also a speed-mentoring event and early risers can make it sweat in a mini boot camp to get their blood stirring and mind ready for the rest of the day. VIP registrants will have the opportunity to receive business coaching from individual experts that have sustained successful small businesses.
