11 don’t-miss January events for Delaware founders and entrepreneurs

Whether you made a resolution to better yourself and your company in 2024 or not, seminars — and their online cousins, webinars — are always good for learning, networking and inspiration.

We found a handful of seminars and webinars, a pitch competition at the library and a resource event to get entrepreneurs through the rest of January. The topics, presented via local chambers of commerce and economic development orgs, range from time management to product pricing to planning for success.

All events cost $20 or less, with more than half of them having no cost at all.

Moreover, are you thinking about applying for an EDGE Grant through the Delaware Division of Small Businesses this year? We’ve also included a couple of free online events that will help you prepare for the process, whether you’re going to apply now or later.
