After a year that has rocked our communities and economies, small business owners across Southeast Alaska are gearing up for 2021 and the new challenges and opportunities it presents.
Join us November 16th -18th for Spruce Root’s Master Class for the New Economy, a
free virtual workshop for Southeast Alaska entrepreneurs that is focused on recovery, resilience, and providing resources for success in the upcoming year.
Entrepreneurs who successfully complete their recovery plan will be encouraged to apply for a grant of up to $5,000 from Spruce Root.During a series of interactive online workshops, Master Class participants will engage with expert presenters and participate in panel discussions on financial planning, strategies for staying afloat, and mental health for entrepreneurs.
Over the course of the workshop, participants will:- develop a one-year recovery plan for their business
- explore and dispel internal limiting beliefs around business ownership
- become familiar with the latest research on the new economy
- learn tools for planning during uncertain times
- build mental strength and resilience
- form valuable connections with a network of expert mentors and Alaska business owners.
We welcome applications from small business owners (less than 50 employees) in Southeast Alaska that have been operating for at least a year. Those outside of Juneau, Ketchikan and Sitka as well as entrepreneurs of color are especially encouraged to apply.
