Upcoming Events

The Walter C. Potts Entrepreneur Center hosts several events throughout the year designed to help our community's small business owners, entrepreneurs and start-up businesses.

5th Annual Community Enrichment Dinner

Be a part of the minority community's most powerful annual event, the Community Enrichment Dinner. The event will be held April 1, 2010, 5:30pm at the Veterans' Memorial Civic & Convention Center to raise money for the Walter C. Potts Entrepreneur Center, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization through the Lima Chamber Foundation. With a solid track record of nationally known speakers and attendance of well over 400 people each year, this is an event you will not want to miss.

This year's speaker will be Dr. Mae Jemison, the first woman of color to go into space. Dr. Jemison boarded the shuttle Endeavour on September 12, 1992. Now, the Founder and President of two technology companies, the space flight was just one in a series of remarkable accomplishments for this dynamic woman.

Interested in attending this event - tickets: $60/person $600/table.
