Next, you’ll hear directly from a diverse panel of lenders—including banks, credit unions, and alternative financing options—who will share tips, answer questions, and explain what they look for in potential borrowers.

The day wraps up with a networking lunch where you can connect one-on-one with lenders, meet fellow entrepreneurs, and explore resources from local vendor tables.
