“We are thrilled to partner with KeyBank to bring another Capital Conversations workshop to our community,” said Skyler Parks, MBAC business adviser. “This is a unique opportunity for entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds to gain valuable insights into the nuances of business structures and financial literacy.”

The event will include a complimentary, catered lunch.
