Take a morning off from working in your business to work on it!

Introducing our first IndieBiz EDU Summit. Before the busy season starts, join us for some self-care for your business. You’ll learn in community with fellow indie local businesses, gaining inspiration and knowhow to put to work right away. Enjoy a half day of learning and networking including breakfast, coffee, snacks, and swag. The event will be at USM's Portland campus in the brand new McGoldrick Center. 

Our summit is for local business owners, entrepreneurs, artists, and anyone who wants to learn new tools to grow and thrive in 2025. Content will be targeted at businesses of five employees and under. Psst…that means you too solopreneurs. That said, if the event resonates with you, join us. All are welcome! Note: This event is in person only.
