The American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) along with the Georgetown University McDonough School of Business Global Social Enterprise Initiative has announced a free online business training webinars for rural entrepreneurs and Farm Bureau members, according to an AFBF statement.
“Finding and Using Business Information” will be presented on Tuesday, Aug. 26 at 3:00 p.m. Eastern. Featured presenters include Jessica Nelson, general manager at the National Center for Economic Gardening, and Steve Radley, president and CEO of the Kansas Center for Entrepreneurship (DBA NetWork Kansas).
“We’re pleased to present the second installment of the webinar series, which was developed to meet the needs of our members who are already involved in rural entrepreneurship enterprises as well as those preparing to launch a business in their local communities,” said Dr. Lisa Benson, AFBF’s director of rural development. “This webinar will help guide rural entrepreneurs in researching market opportunities for starting or innovating in their businesses,” she added.
At the end of July, an orientation workshop “kicked off” the webinar series with featured presenter Dan Durheim, AFBF’s director of industry affairs, giving a comprehensive overview of the national Rural Entrepreneurship Initiative. The webinar is available here.
Farm Bureau members and other interested parties are encouraged to RSVP here.
