Wilmington, Delaware - at the Riverfront Shipyard Shops
Far end of the shops that face I-95 (not the river side)
1054-1072 Justison St, Wilmington, DE 19801 (former Vanity Fair store) - Google Maps
This event, free and open to the public, will assemble a top notch collection of Delaware's business leaders to provide their perspective to attendees on what it takes to launch and build businesses, and succeed in this difficult economic environment.
Sponsored by the Community Matters Networking Group, the Hispanic Business Association of Delaware, Delawareblack.com and the New Castle County Republican Committee, this is not a job fair, but rather a networking event geared toward providing valuable career advice and professional connections. It will provide a forum for job seekers, those in career transition and the underemployed to interact directly with area business leaders and entrepreneurs to learn how current economic conditions are affecting business hiring objectives and ask how best to navigate the difficult job market.
