October Workshop

Join us this October at Loudoun County 1 Million Cups for an eye-opening workshop on Community Banking, led by Senior Vice President of John Marshall Bank - Pete Nadanyi.

They’ll be leading a special presentation on what community banking really is and why small business is built there. This is a unique chance to hear directly from a community-focused bank about the role they play in helping entrepreneurs and business owners grow.

We’re excited to welcome John Marshall Bank, a business-focused community bank serving the DMV, to share insights designed to help entrepreneurs — especially those in the early stages of their business journey — better navigate the world of banking services.

Topics will include:

• Understanding the core services of a bank and what matters most for startups.
• The differences between National, Regional, and Community banks — and how to choose the right fit.
• Breaking down credit culture and lending myths with a clear explanation of how credit decisions are made.
• Preparing to apply for a loan — from financial statements to business plans.
• An overview of Small Business Lending programs (SBA 7a, 504, Express) and how they can help.

Join us Wednesday, October 22 at 9:00 AM at Venture X Loudoun for this educational and transparent conversation about banking and business growth.
