Community Events

Rural Business Innovation hosts training throughout the year on various topics related to the start-up and growth of small business. Our new schedule will be available in March 2020. ​

The Community Events page will give you a helpful list of links to the various organizations' event/workshop pages. RBI is only one of region's economic development resources. Others include; SBDC, IMC, NEPIRC, USDA, CareerLink and many more. We strive to work with these organizations and our partners to maintain continuity and minimize duplication of efforts. It is our hope that this effort will allow more entrepreneurs and small businesses to take advantage of the amazing training and networking opportunities this area has to offer its local businesses.
