Events can include such things as educational workshops, networking opportunities, competitions, roundtable discussions and expert panels. The committee is also seeking sponsors and partners to help promote and support this regional initiative.
New in 2012, is the addition of BREW Spotlight, a program aimed at educating the community about the valuable resources available through three non-profit organizations doing amazing work in Massachusetts. “The goal of the BREW Spotlight is to introduce our community to local organizations helping to launch, support or educate current and future entrepreneurs on starting and running a business,” said Christine Sierra, Managing Director of BREW. “This year we have elected to shine a spotlight on Interise.org, Merrimack Valley Sandbox Initiative and NFTE.org and will be building programs which highlight the good work that they do.” Learn more at www.brewboston.org/brew-spotlight.
