About the Event
We're glad we can bring you this event from May to June.
Running a micro business can be one of the most rewarding things you’ll ever do—but it’s also a rollercoaster of hard lessons, small wins, big risks, and moments of doubt. And sometimes, you just want to hear from someone who's walked the same path.
That’s why the Micro Business Forum is hosting a down-to-earth, no-fluff panel discussion featuring real business owners sharing real stories—what they’ve learned, what they’d do differently, and how they’re still navigating the journey today.
In this interactive session, we’ll talk openly about the highs, lows, and everything in between when it comes to starting and running a business.
Meet the Panel Speakers:
