​The City’s virtual business planning series for entrepreneurs continues

 

It all starts with a plan! To help set small businesses and entrepreneurs up for future success, the City of Vaughan is continuing its virtual series on developing a business plan – a critical step in launching and growing a business.  

The Business Planning Launchpad is a free virtual program designed for startups and established small businesses. In addition to the training sessions, all participants can book 30-minute one-on-one meetings during office hours with the course facilitator to get feedback on their business and financial plans.
