WHAT IS THE CAREER OPPORTUNITY FAIR and EMPOWERMENT SPEAKERS SERIES?
This 10-year-old event is designed to highlight entrepreneurs and self-employed small business owners who want to showcase their businesses, gain new customers, expand their downline, promote and sell their products, services, crafts, talent, products and share their and alternative income opportunities. This year as we partner with the U. S. Small Business Administration during National Veterans Small Business Week, we are also adding a new opportunity provider category and are accepting vendors who have "GIG Economy" opportunities. The "GIG Economy" is a labor market characterized by the prevalence of short-term contracts or freelance work as opposed to permanent jobs, an additional means of supplementing personal income
