Become Your Own Boss—a crash course in business fundamentals

Are you joining the work-from-anywhere tidal wave? If you’ve ever thought about starting a business or if you’ve already taken the leap, you know that it takes a village of support. You know what it’s like to live with daily uncertainty, to always have questions, and to relentlessly pursue learning.

And you’re not alone. One of the economic impacts of the pandemic is that it accelerated the ability– and desire– to work from anywhere. Some professionals may have adopted an entrepreneurial path out of necessity after job loss. Some pivoted their careers to become their own boss, increasing their personal flexibility and autonomy. Others moved out of crowded urban centers in favor of a more rural setting, opting to work from any wifi connection.

If this is you, join RIoT at the Gig East Exchange for a half-day of tactical business support to help you operationalize a new business idea.
This is a crash course (workshop) in business fundamentals: We’ll cover validating your business concept through talking to customers, establishing best practices for smooth operations, and creating a business plan that’s actually useful and actionable to drive your next steps.
