Identifying Challenges and Opportunities of Entrepreneurship

Wednesday, April 14, 2 p.m. EDT

Presented by Russell Combs, Executive Director, Erie Technology Incubator, Erie, Pa., and Lisa Ison, Former President, New Century Venture Center, Salem, Va.

Many entrepreneurs aren’t aware of the potential pitfalls they face on the road to starting a viable business, so they aren’t prepared to deal with them. Join this online training session to find out how you can help companies avoid failure. Industry veterans will explain how incubator staff and mentors can work with an entrepreneur from the first conversation through graduation to address the issues they face along the way.

Topics will include:

  • Suggestions for setting up effective mentoring teams
  • Tips on how to work with entrepreneurs through crucial years of growth
  • Issues entrepreneurs may face after graduation

This session was popular during NBIA’s 2009 conference in Kansas City, Mo. Here’s what attendees had to say about it:

  • Great tactical info. Clearly the speakers speak from experience.
  • Good, down-to-earth, anecdotal suggestions.
  • Described how-tos very well with plenty of examples.
  • Dynamic, passionate experts as speakers.
