Connect, Grow, and Learn
The North Marion Business Resource Fairs are designed to bring state, regional, and local service providers together. We invite businesses and entrepreneurs to attend one of two Business Fairs where they will have the opportunity to meet with providers, gather information, and spend one-on-one time with representatives. If you are a business owner or representative, or are interested in learning more about starting a business, join us at our next Resource Fair to learn about the organizations and resources available to help them start or grow a business.
