As North Grenville continues to grow as a hub for entrepreneurship and small business innovation, the coming weeks offer a variety of events designed to support, educate, and connect our business community. From pitch development and succession planning to funding webinars and networking mixers, these opportunities are tailored to meet the diverse needs of both emerging entrepreneurs and established business owners.

The Leeds Grenville Small Business Centre is now accepting applications for the next intake of Starter Company Plus, beginning in May. This program provides small business owners with training, mentorship, and potential grant opportunities to help strengthen and grow their businesses. Participants will receive guidance in areas such as strategic planning, market research, and sales, along with access to interactive workshops and a network of fellow entrepreneurs.
