A conference to network the regional capital community and entrepreneurs

After food and energy, local capital is the third and critical capacity we must develop to relocalize our economy. The Addison County Relocalization Network (ACORN), the Addison County Economic Development Corporation (ACEDC) and the Addison County Regional Planning Commission (ACRPC) are pleased to announce a local money conference for networking Champlain Valley food, agriculture, and forestry businesses with regional capital providers.

Financing the Working Landscape aims:

  • To introduce entrepreneurs to local capital providers.
  • To educate entrepreneurs about the capital continuum, stages of business development and how to prepare for capitalization.
  • To catalyze opportunities for entrepreneurs through 3-minute pitches and networking.

The conference will include 10 panelists, four case studies, an Entrepreneurs Showcase, an Entrepreneurs Challenge Presentation and a networking session for businesses looking for capital. 

Read more about the conference schedule at ACORN's site.
