On Saturday, May 5th, Accion San Diego is joining together with VEDC and CDC Small Business Finance to host the annual Where’s the Money Expo! The event is a comprehensive access to capital expo ideal for business owners looking for money for expansion, working capital, inventory, commercial real estate or equipment purchase. The event will be very informative, and we encourage all of our small business owners to attend!

This year’s event includes a networking breakfast and a luncheon featuring Keynote Speaker Ruben Garcia, U.S. Small Business Administration District Director of San Diego. It will be held at the Doubletree Hotel in Mission Valley, at 7450 Hazard Center Drive, San Diego, CA 92108, from 8am to 3pm.

Panels of experts will be conducting workshops focusing on unconventional financing and what it takes to qualify, understanding procurement and contracts, regulations and policies that affect how you manage your business and marketing strategies for non-marketing people. There will also be a business expo and a loan pavilion where business owners can sit one-on-one with a loan consultant to discuss and determine their lending options in a more confidential setting.
