On June 16, 2022 we hosted a consultant panel discussion network event with two previous or current SWMBE firms that have experience starting, growing, and maintaining successful businesses. With a combination of preplanned questions from our facilitators and questions from our audience, we asked our panel guests how they have done it as successful business owners. Topics of discussion included company structure, business development, software, staffing, accounting, past struggles, or anything pertinent to starting and growing a business. This course offers the recorded questions and answers of this event.
