We continue to participate in the Strive305 Mogul Maker Series. These are all-day in-person workshops for entrepreneurs at different branch locations. Every event has a large audience. This has been a cooperative effort between financial institutions, nonprofits, local chamber of commerce, small businesses, and government agencies. Also, a great opportunity to share info about patents and trademarks.
We attend the First Friday’s Business Breakfast Series at Oasis, a local community incubator which provides free workshops once a month to small business owners. Special guests have included serial entrepreneurs, local governments, CDFI’s, banks, library staff talking about patents and trademarks, and others. The library provides information to attendees about small business resources. Attendance continues to remain high.
