Microenterprise Legislative Conference in Olympia

February 10, 2009 No Comments

washington_logo_smWashington State Microenterprise Association (WSMA) invites you to join us in Olympia on February 26, 2009… Please join us for our Member Meeting and Legislative Reception to honor our many supporters.

This is an important time to be part of the solution.  With job losses and unemployment on the rise, entrepreneurship, self-employment and microenterprise are known to be effective strategies in generating economic opportunity even during our worst economic times.  With over 86% of businesses in Washington being “micro-businesses” we must continue to come together to build and strengthen this sector.

Both Members and Non-Members are welcome to join us in Olympia to share, educate, explore and most importantly thank our supporters.

Registration and event details are attached.  Please feel free to visit our website for more information www.WAMicrobiz.org
