About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

When: Wed, May 14th, 2025, 12:00 - 1:00 PM

Location: Zoom (and streamed live on Facebook).

Format
The session begins with a 30-minute discussion between WISE business counselor, Barb Stone, and our guest experts, covering key questions we believe are most relevant to the audience, similar to a panel format. We then open the conversation for audience questions.

Topic

Join us for an informal virtual conversation with real estate experts and community partners who can help you navigate the process of finding a brick-and-mortar space. Learn what to look for, key considerations, and how to connect with organizations like the Downtown Committee to make the best decision for your business.

About the WISE Power Hour

The WISE Power Hour is a monthly virtual roundtable designed specifically for entrepreneurs. Each session focuses on a unique, timely topic led by an expert in the field, with moderation provided by a WISE advisor or counselor. This interactive format encourages questions and discussion, creating a supportive and engaging learning environment.

We understand the demanding schedules of entrepreneurs, so sessions are conveniently held during the lunch hour and recordings are available afterward on our Facebook page. Topics are carefully selected to align with current business trends and the needs of our WISE clients.

Whether you’re looking to stay informed, find solutions, or connect with other people in business, the WISE Power Hour offers insights and inspiration in a format that works for you.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Power Hour streamed live to Facebook?

Yes! The session is transmitted from Zoom to Facebook Live, where people can also watch the live stream or the recording of the Power Hour at a later time. By registering to attend on Eventbrite, you are granted access to the Zoom session, where you can interact with the host and topic expert.

Wait, so do I need to register?

We recommend it! By registering you are given direct access to join via Zoom and interact with the host and expert(s), which is not the same experience as watching the Livestream or recording.

Why is it livestreamed?

So busy business owners can hop on easily when they have time, or watch the recording on their own time!
