NFN Entrepreneur Workshop Series

The NFN Economic Development Department, in partnership with The Business Centre Nipissing Parry Sound, invites NFN Members to take part in a 5-session Business Development Series designed to support and grow your business.

These sessions will cover key topics including business planning, finance, pitching, marketing, and hands-on support. Whether you are just starting out or looking to strengthen your existing business, these sessions offer practical tools and guidance to help you succeed.

  • Attendance at all five sessions is not mandatory — NFN Members may choose which sessions to attend.
  • Hybrid sessions — participate in-person or online.
  • Registration is required for both in-person and online participation

To register, email [email protected] and indicate:
