The Broward and Beyond Business Conference will take place June 12 at the Broward County Convention Center. The event is free and open to entrepreneurs, startups and businesses of all sizes.<\/p>\n

Organizers say they expect more than 1,000 attendees this year. Participants will have access to federal, state and local agencies, along with information on funding opportunities, international trade and artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’re really excited to invite our business community to the Broward and Beyond Business Conference,\u201d said Maribel Feliciano with the Broward County Office of Economic and Small Business Development. \u201cIt’s our ninth year putting together this event. Our Broward County Commission basically has made a commitment that we need to support our local businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n

Feliciano also noted that small businesses make up about 90% of Broward County\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are a small business-based economy,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s really important that they understand the free resources we have\u2014technical assistance, grants, loan programs and more\u2014and that our businesses are aware of those resources.\u201d<\/p>\n

Organizers say the conference comes at a time when many small businesses are still navigating economic uncertainty, and the goal is to connect owners with tools to help them grow and succeed.<\/p>\n
