Examples of Workshop Titles:  “So You Want to Be an Entrepreneur?”,   “Getting Blood From A Turnip – How to Raise Capital!”  “Guerilla Marketing – How to Make Money – Not Spend It.”  “Bootstrapping to Success,”  “How to Protect Your Intellectual Property:  Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights”,  “How to Remember Names and Faces: Developing a Dynamic Memory”  among others.  Veterans should bring or email a copy of their DD-214 with their SSN blacked out.
