| Small Businesses Six Point Plan for Urban Business Success
1 We are committed to introducing you to your next 5 business opportunities
The Turning Point Urban Business Summit does not try to be all things to all businesses.
Instead, the Summit is an exclusive event for those select entrepreneurs and business professionals who are ready to turn the way they think about - and run - their businesses inside out. It is for those companies looking for their true Turning Point.
Every business session and every encounter is planned to give you a different take on how you grow your business.
Your return extends beyond your attendance, with guaranteed follow-up and continual exposure to business opportunities beyond the two-day conference.
Your experience is not typical of what you have come to expect from other conferences.

Every registered business is assigned an on-site Networking Concierge to help you make connections, facilitate introductions and arrange meetings with the people and companies you want and need to connect with. 3 Access to Success Business Development Caucuses
