Past Events

This Business Expo and Job Fair is a “business to community and a business to business” event, connecting consumers and businesses by leveraging the chance to get in front of potential clients, customers, and employees during the workday.

The Expo will also serve as a job fair where signage will indicate which vendors are recruiting. Recruiting vendors will be available to meet with candidates or complete applications on the spot.

If you or someone you know needs employees or is looking for work, the Expo is the best place to be. Employers who are hiring will have special signage at their booths. Best to dress for success!

We hope to see you there!

Additional Resources for Small Businesses

California Small Business COVID-19 Relief Grant Program. A comprehensive package that speeds much-needed relief to individuals, families, and businesses suffering the most significant economic hardship due to COVID-19.

The Program provides a crucial financial lifeline to traditionally underserved small businesses and non-profits. The recently signed package provides $2.075 billion – a four-fold increase to that initial $500 million – for grants up to $25,000 for small businesses impacted by the pandemic. The new package also includes a $50 million allocation for non-profit cultural institutions. Four competitive funding rounds are conducted by the California Office of Small Business Advocate’s (CALOSBA) selected intermediary, Lendistry.  For additional information on the CA Relief Grant, please visit: CAReliefGrant.com
