About this Event

Join Us at the SCCLF Entrepreneur Conference!


You're invited, and so is your team. Join the South Carolina Community Loan Fund for a full day of workshops, networking, and inspiring speakers built specifically for small business owners and entrepreneurs across South Carolina. It's free to attend, so bring the people who help you run your business your co-founders, your managers, your whole crew. The more of your team in the room, the more your business gets out of the day.

For over 20 years, SCCLF has been a catalyst for economic growth in communities across the state, providing loans, technical assistance, and advocacy for small businesses, affordable housing, and community facilities. This conference brings that mission to life for a day: real connections, practical strategies, and the kind of conversations that move a business forward.
