Small Business Clinics are designed as one-stop-shop events where you can “choose your own adventure” by attending as many—or as few—sessions as you’d like. Customize your day by registering for sessions that match your needs and interests, and feel free to drop in and out as your schedule allows.
Experts from the Dept. of Revenue, Dept. of Workforce Development, WI Dept. of Financial Institutions, and other state agencies may be represented. Depending on availability and interest, a bilingual consultant is often available to offer consulting in Spanish.
There is no cost to participate. Light refreshments and lunch are provided to attendees.
A typical Small Business Clinic will include:
- Confidential, no cost, consulting appointments (30 minutes) provided by subject matter experts with the SBDC, local Economic Development Organizations (EDOs), and other invited resource partners.
- General session presentations (30-60 minutes) throughout the day that focus on essential topics such as Business Planning, Digital Marketing, AI, Legal, Taxes, Funding Programs, and more.
- A full day of networking opportunities to connect with fellow small businesses and critical resources in your community and around the state!
Topics covered include (but are not limited to):
- General Small Business
- Digital Marketing
- E-Commerce/Sales
- Contract, IP, and Copyright Law
- Accounting and Finance
- Artifical Intelligence (AI)
