Economic Development Corporation of Kansas City, EDC Loan Corporation and UMKC – Small Business Technology & Development Centers will be in the Crossroads to present three FREE! workshops.
The workshop will be held on three Wednesdays in March, at three different Crossroads locations, the schedule is listed below. You may attend any of the three dates, as the presentation will be the same at each. There is no need to RSVP, and there will be no charge. Just think of this as one more GREAT benefit that the CCA is bringing to the neighborhood thanks to our friends at the EDC! Feel free to invite people from your network that you think might benefit. It seems to me that almost everyone in the Crossroads could benefit from this presentation, and I like what that says about our neighborhood.
