The SBEP helps for-profit small business owners and CEOs work on their business while accommodating their busy schedules. Taught by industry experts, participants learn the Business Model Canvas and are given additional tools to emerge as stronger leaders ready to capitalize on business opportunities. The program helps identify clear and focused strategies in marketing, exit strategy, financial analysis and more.

“Our team looks forward to guiding another class of Jacksonville CEOs through the process of enhancing their businesses and preparing for the challenges that come with operating a growing company,” said Stephanie Royal, Director of North Florida Operations at the Jim Moran Institute. “The knowledge acquired through the SBEP program will leave entrepreneurs confident in their business decision-making and give them the tools they need to not only reach but exceed their business’s potential.”

Up to 20 participants from non-competing businesses will be accepted into the four-month program. Sessions take place once a month for four hours. The program begins August 16th and runs through November 15th. CEOs and small business owners operating for three years or more and with three or more employees are eligible to apply
