ConNECtions 2.0 celebrates the NEC’s 20 years!

By Homepage Spotlight

The National Entrepreneur Center (NEC) celebrated partnerships with 18 small business nonprofit organizations in Central Florida at ConNECtions 2.0, May 24th, 2023 at UCF Downtown campus! Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings and City of Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer helped recognized the work of these organizations!

Guests were encouraged to network using smart technology profiles that allowed them to see the profiles of others in attendance and resources available.

Thank you to the BizRX mentors and business coaches from UCF Business Incubators, SCORE Orlando, Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at UCF, and Veterans Entrepreneurship Initiative who spoke with entrepreneurs and small businesses.

Congratulations to the Amateur Commercial Contest winner!
