Loudoun Small Business Week is June 3-7; Special Events Planned

 

The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors has adopted a proclamation in support of Loudoun Small Business Week, set for June 3 – 7, 2013.

According to the Virginia Employment Commission, Loudoun County is home to more than 7,000 businesses with fewer than 20 employees, accounting for over 85% of the total business population in Loudoun. In addition, there are thousands of home-based businesses located in the county.  

In conjunction with Small Business Week, the Loudoun County Department of Economic Development is co-sponsoring a series of events, including seminars, workshops and networking opportunities for small business owners and entrepreneurs.  Topics will range from “Banking Basics for Small Businesses” to “Find, Hire and Keep Remarkable People. ”
