The Next Level Network
by Entrepreneurs for Entrepreneurs
|
Under the Department of Labor's WIRED initiative, we've been encouraged to help aspiring entrepreneurs and small businesses with the challenges involved in start-up and expansion in Northern California.
|
Smart has been very fortunate to have a group of skilled entrepreneurs give generously of their time and expertise to help others, leading several Entrepreneur Workshops in January and March of 2008. From those Workshops, the NextLevel Network was born.
The Network is unique in two ways. It creates a peer-to-peer connection for people who share many of the same experiences. And it’s free.
The Network is primarily an information and education entity. The co-chairs and members connect folks with business assistance and financing services, offer support and encouragement, and facilitate the discussion of ideas and experiences. It’s a place where people can share their stories, get feedback on their products, and hear from experts brought in to speak about specific topics of interest.
