Small Business Week this year will look a little different.
Quinte Business Week will be celebrated this year from October 19-23 according to the Quinte Regional Chambers of Commerce.
This year’s theme is Forging the Way Forward.
The Belleville, Quinte West and Prince Edward County Chambers of Commerce have joined forces to celebrate this week.
There are events going on every day starting on Monday, October 19 at 11 a.m. with the Kick Off for the week.
Everyone is invited to attend the event virtually which is sponsored by the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) and will feature messages about business week from the Bay of Quinte Chambers, MPs, MPPs, mayors and a presentation from BDC.
There are three days of workshops being offered to the local business community on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, all designed to help businesses access the information they need to maximize their efforts to grow and develop.
Most of the workshops will be virtual but there is one hybrid workshop to give attendees the choice of how they would like to attend.
There is no cost to attend these seminars.
Friday, October 23 is the Quinte Business Achievement Awards, which will be a virtual event this year broadcast live through social media starting at 5:30 p.m.
This year 117 businesses throughout the region completed the nomination process.
