October 22 2020 - 9:00AM
Verizon Business will feature entrepreneur, investor and “Shark
Tank” star Lori Greiner as a guest for its next Small Business
Webinar on October 27th at 2 p.m. EST. Since launching in April,
the Small Business Webinar series has featured entrepreneurs,
business experts, and government officials, who have shared
business strategies, personal experiences, and resources to help
small businesses overcome their unique challenges during the
pandemic. To date, the series has garnered more than 32,000 views.
Co-hosted by entrepreneur, best-selling author and global
speaker, Ramon Ray, the free webinar kicks off at 2 p.m. EDT.
Attendees can pre-register here and are invited to ask Lori and
Ramon questions. A replay of this event and previous webinars will
be available on demand to those registered following the
webinar.
Ramon stated, “Lori's passion for small business success is
powerful. I'm excited to bring her knowledge and unique perspective
to small businesses.”
“We launched this webinar series in April after our survey found
that close to 50% of all small businesses would find a platform
that provided support and advice on how to navigate the pandemic
helpful,” said TJ Fox, President of Verizon Business Markets. “We
are excited to welcome Lori, one of the best-known small business
experts out there, to our series.”
The Verizon Small Business Webinar Series is one of the many
initiatives that Verizon has led throughout the pandemic in support
of small businesses. Other programs include Comeback Coach,
Verizon’s small business resource hub that brings together valuable
tools, services and advice and the Women in Business Mentorship
Program, led by Verizon Business CEO Tami Erwin. Earlier this year,
Verizon launched Pay It Forward Live, a weekly live streamed
entertainment series to support the small businesses most affected.
The Verizon Foundation supported with $7.5 million in funding to
small businesses nationwide across three rounds of grants through
the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC).
