Statesboro-Bulloch Chamber of Commerce
Jul 13    BIG Cafe
 

Are you a local entrepreneur or small business owner looking to network, engage with others and help solve business problems over a free cup of coffee? Join us at the BIG Café! This one-hour structured business innovation session creates a space for peers, mentors and advisors to help each other over a cup of coffee and donuts. How it works: Each month two local entrepreneurs have six minutes to present a prepared overview of their businesses followed by 20 minutes of Q&A. Between presentations, we refill our coffee cups before moving on to the second presentation. That's it! No obligations. No strings attached. We look forward to seeing you there! Thanks to our BIG Cafe sponsors: Cool Beanz and the DSDA!

**Please note: BIG Café will open at 8:30 a.m. for networking and coffee. Presentations will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m. and will finish at 10:00 a.m. BIG Café will remain open until 11:00 a.m. for additional networking after the presentations. So come early, stay late or do both!**
