The 2009 PEAK Conference

MICROENTERPRISE: The Engine For Economic Growth 

On June 30th, supporters of the microenterprise field gathered in Lexington, Kentucky to hear from noted speakers Jody Raskind, Jason Friedman, Donna Salyers and others and to learn about new ideas, tools, and strategies designed to encourage micro-entrepreneurism.

Progressive trainings, valuable networking opportunities, and best practice sharing positioned attendees to staty up to date on and take full advantage of the current trends in the industry.

Microenterprise development is more important now than it has ever been.  Businesses with five or fewer employees create thousands of new jobs each year and serve as the economic engine of many of our communities.

Microenterprise Matters!
