Small Business University’s impact goes beyond knowledge-sharing; it culminates in a competition where attendees have the opportunity to present their business plan for a chance to win cash prizes. With the program capped at 25 participants, business owners who completed at least four of the five sessions were able to compete. The competition was a highlight, with business owners putting their newfound skills to the test in front of a panel of judges.
