Volusia Business Resources Funding Readiness 2024 is an event designed to help your business be ready for business funding.
Entrepreneurs and small business owners will have an opportunity to “Learn from the Experts” at the Volusia Business Resources (VBR) Funding Readiness Workshop being held at The Center at Deltona Oct. 2, 2024. Volusia County Economic Development is hosting the event to arm attendees with tools and knowledge that they’ll need to secure critical funding for their business venture.

The workshop will feature lenders, financial professionals and small business consultants who will share expertise and insights to help small businesses navigate the sometimes-complex lending process. Attendees will learn what lenders and investors expect, determine where pre-application work is required, and be able to recognize the type of funding that best fits their venture’s need.

Daryle Scott, founder of Venus Swimwear, will be the event’s featured speaker. Scott, a Stetson University graduate, founded a mail-order startup from his dorm room and transformed it into Venus Swimwear, a $100 million international brand. Attendees will get to hear his inspiring story and learn how he acquired funding to propel his business to greater heights.
