Organized by CPRO in partnership with Arlington Economic Development’s BizLaunch, Columbia Pike Business Opportunity Networking Events are held at least quarterly and provide a great way to meet other local entrepreneurs, promote your own business, and to stay abreast of what’s happening in the area. A typical turn-out of over 100 participants includes an exciting mix of established companies, home-based businesses, start-ups, government and nonprofits, and individuals interested to start a venture on Columbia Pike. Featured guests provide information on a wide range of topics of interest, such as local resources for the small business community and assistance with obtaining loans, finding space, obtaining building permits, and marketing products and services. Networking sponsorship opportunities are available!
Thanks to our Hosting Sponsor--55 Hundred--the next networking session will take place at their newly delivered mixed use development of the same name on March 18th, 2010 from 8:00am-9:30am. In addition to providing a great environment to network, tours of the beautifully appointed apartments and available retail space will be offered for those interested. Our event is also sponsored by Art Display Company(ADC), the Mid-Atlantic region’s leading manufacturer, designer and installer of commerical signage and environmental graphics. Thanks to both sponsors for their generous support!
