This is an in-person seminar to be held at Propeller. Propeller is located at 4035 Washington Avenue, New Orleans, LA 70125.

Learn how your business can benefit from certification as a Louisiana Small and Emerging Business (SEBD).

This workshop will cover the eligibility criteria of the SEBD Program, the benefits of a certification, and the steps you need to follow to get your business certified. Benefits of free SEBD Certification include business developmental assistance, entrepreneurial training, marketing, computer skills, accounting, industry-specific assistance and increased procurement opportunities.

If your business is already registered with the Secretary of State and is operational, you may want to bring your laptop as we will be doing hands-on certification during this event. The information you need to have access to during the certification application process include 1) your business basic information such as the address, EIN, NAICS Code, number of employees, and annual revenue; and 2) business owner information such as name, address, and personal financial net worth.

The speaker will also provide an overview of the Hudson Initiative, a certification that will give your business an edge when competing for State contracts.

Speaker(s): Tina Langlois, SBDC Consultant

Co-Sponsor(s): Louisiana Economic Development and Propeller.
