Brain Boost

Brain Boost is a monthly brown bag event designed to build expertise, catapult the success of small businesses, and ensure equitable access to a wealth of knowledge. Topics will vary: from contract basics, marketing strategy, budgeting, and keeping your focus, to riding out the rough times. Scroll down for a list of upcoming dates and topics.

How it works

People from a wide variety of professions and walks of life share their experience and expertise in a 30-40 minute educational talk. Then, with the help of a facilitator, will engage participants in active conversation for up to 30 minutes. The event is meant to spark inclusive conversation and circulate the abundant knowledge within Frederick’s small biz community.

Participants bring their own lunch (optionally). Drinks and light snacks are provided. The Foundation covers the cost of running the program and the meeting space, with the help of sponsors. Speakers volunteer their time.
