Thriving in the Carolinas: Supporting Small Businesses and Communities

This drop-in style event will showcase the work of NCGrowth and the Kenan Institute of Private Enterprise, affiliates of UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School. Stations will be set up spotlighting client projects with small businesses and communities, new economic research initiatives, and student involvement. Tribal-led tourism development, outdoor recreation economies, Hurricane Helene recovery, and small manufacturers innovating in rural North Carolina – these are a few topics you can expect to dive into!

Lunch will be available for the first 100 attendees. Register now here.

This event is generously sponsored by Partner Community Capital, a community development financial institution that supports businesses and nonprofits located in underserved communities across Central Appalachia and the Southeast. Learn more here.
