One of the most powerful tools for an entrepreneur is being connected with the right resources at the time they are needed most. Timely Topics is a new series hosted by the Connecticut Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation that features panels of speakers, workshops to engage our entrepreneurs, and fireside chats with successful entrepreneurs. These sessions are a way for CCEI to provide ongoing opportunities for students, faculty, and alumni entrepreneurs to learn, grow, and connect.
Are you intrigued by the idea of going international? In our first Timely Topics event we will be joined by Denise Whitford and Erno De Bruijn who will be engaging in conversation regarding global expansion. Secure your spot today! https://forms.gle/TCWtGL2LnniJhz599 -
