(April 18, 2014) – Greater Fort Wayne Business Weekly announces a new business education conference aimed at decision makers for small to medium sized businesses and entrepreneurs. “Achieve Your Dreams – Advice for Making Your Business Ideas a Reality” will be held Thursday, May 15 from 7:30 AM to 11:00 AM at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum Appleseed Room. Tickets are $20 and include a light breakfast and parking.

The morning event will start with a keynote address by popular national speaker, Shannon Kinney, who left a $200,000 a year job and a client list that included cars.com and careerbuilder.com to follow her passion, risk all of her savings and start her own business, Dream Local Digital. She will share her personal journey as a single mother working out of her garage and her step-by-step formula for business success.

Following the keynote address, local experts will educate attendees in attracting advisers, raising capital, insuring assets, legal protections, accounting for success, banking, and marketing your brand. Following the presentations, the local experts along with keynote speaker, Shannon Kinney, will join in a panel discussion. Afterwards attendees can meet one-on-one with each of the speakers to ask questions privately and visit information booths from area businesses.
