Free Seminars Set for Entrepreneurs

A five-part series of seminars for business entrepreneurs is scheduled to begin next week.

The Town of Huntington, the Small Business Development Center at Farmingdale State College, the Huntington Township Chamber of Commerce and Citi Community Development are co-sponsoring the seminars, which will be held at the Huntington Business Incubator.

Topics covered in the sessions will include performing a self-assessment of strengths and weaknesses; financing a business; how to write a business plan; organizational structure; financial reporting, and the keys to success.              

“This is a golden opportunity for people looking to start a business or to improve an existing one to receive invaluable guidance from experts, at no cost,” Supervisor Frank Petrone said. “I hope that budding entrepreneurs will take advantage of this program.” 

People looking to start a business or to improve existing ones are welcome to participate.
The sessions will be held from 6 pm-9 pm at the Incubator, 1268 New York Avenue, Huntington Station. The first session is on May 13; the program continues on May 14, 15, 20 and 21.
