Register Now for Our Evening 'Encore Entrepreneur' Seminar with the SBA in Worcester

Now in its fourth year of helping Massachusetts residents 50+ realize their entrepreneurial dreams, Encore Entrepreneur, the AARP outreach program with the Small Business Administration (SBA), is better than ever.

AARP Massachusetts, the  Massachusetts Small Business Administration District Office, and SCORE Worcester are coming to Western Massachusetts with an event specifically designed to help “encore entrepreneurs”— those aged 50+— who want to launch or expand a small business. This time, the Encore Entrepreneur Seminar will be held in the evening, thereby allowing even more entrepreneurs to attend.

This seminar is part of the “ Summer of Encore Mentoring” initiative offered by AARP Massachusetts and the Massachusetts Small Business Administration District Office. The events build on the successful Mentor Day program from 2012, which evolved into successful “Mentor Months” in both 2013 and 2014.

 

Participants in the Encore Entrepreneur Seminar will work with experts from AARP, the SBA, and  SCORE to learn about programs and resources that will help them start, keep, and grow successful businesses.
