Over 200 local small business owners recently came to the Seaford Knights of Columbus to take part in Senator Charles J. Fuschillo Jr.’s (R-Merrick) annual Small Business Networking Expo.

The event enabled individuals who were looking to start or expand a small business to learn about different business assistance programs from numerous government and non-profit agencies. Information about how to access capital, write a business plan, and what lenders look for when loaning to a small business was offered to all those in attendance.

In addition, business owners were able to network with each other to promote their businesses and exchange information and ideas. Local Chambers of Commerce were also on hand to offer information about the services they provide and the different opportunities that are available within their respective communities.

Anyone who was unable to attend Senator Fuschillo’s Small Business Networking Expo but would like more information about any of these services can call his office at 516-882-0630 or email him through his website, fuschillo.nysenate.gov.
