In my opinion the best place to be as an entrepreneur is surrounded by other likeminded individuals. There is nothing better than the energy of others who are as passionate as you are about being their own boss and pursuing their dreams – we all have something to learn from one another. This is why I highly recommend attending a conference for business owners, even if you haven’t made the full jump yet to self-employed. I’ve listed the top 5 conferences for business owners to attend this year, including my own in August!
