Local Stories Live! Virtual Panel Series

The Local Stories Live series lets participants connect with local successful small business owners for lively discussions on what it takes to survive and thrive as a small business.

Following the inaugural session on Jan. 15, Hillsborough County will host the monthly live, virtual panel discussions, each focusing on a different small business sector, on the second Friday of each month at 9 a.m.

The 30 minute discussions will each feature three different local business leaders and will be followed by a brief question and answer period. Established business owners, entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in the local business community are invited to participate in the sessions and learn why supporting local makes all the difference in Hillsborough County.

This session will showcase business owners representing the self-care industry which includes fitness, healthy food choices, and beauty.
