NYC Global Business Strategies and Intellectual Property

RSVP to this Meetup and then Register Here for Zoom Link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2003320097339

As your business grows, you can’t do everything yourself—and hiring full-time employees for every need isn’t always the right answer. The right outside providers can give your company the expertise, flexibility, and strategic support needed to scale efficiently.
This webinar will explore how startups and growing businesses can identify, evaluate, select, and manage the right network of outside providers, including attorneys, consultants, and other professional partners. We’ll discuss when to outsource, what to look for in a provider, how to structure relationships, and common mistakes to avoid.
Whether you are preparing for growth or already scaling, this session will provide practical strategies for building a trusted provider network that supports your business goals.

Presented by the Entrepreneurial Strategy Series and Gearhart Law.
