Digital Rochester has once again partnered with Greater Rochester Enterprise (GRE) to put together a two part program for small and midsize companies in the nine-county area that are involved in product manufacturing, research and development, technology or professional services. Capacity is limited, so companies must apply to participate. [Application]

APPLICATIONS FOR THIS SEGMENT NOW CLOSED
Up to 75 companies will be invited to participate in a half-day program that will feature speakers and break out sessions on topics like government incentives, workforce development and training resources, import/export assistance and e-business. The actual content will be driven by the votes of the participants. You’ll have the chance to meet business and community leaders, making connections that have the potential to help your business down the road. In addition, GRE has committed to meeting with each one of the companies to explore individual opportunities for assistance.
