started a small business, seeking a small business loan, or wanting to learn more
about business planning,” said Assistant Director of Southeastern’s SBDC Sandy Summers.
“Special focus will be placed on financing for veteran-owned businesses.”
Summers said topics of discussion include writing a business plan, sources of
funds for start-up and expansion, small business resources, and required licenses.
