Small Business Week Celebration - September ECONversations Podcast

In celebration of National Small Business Week, this month’s vibrant conversation centers around the role of New Jersey’s small businesses, their impact to the state’s economy, and the different ways small business owners have been able to positively navigate the ups and downs of the pandemic. The ECONversations podcast is part of the NJEDA’s multi-media campaign to promote New Jersey’s small business community. The state’s nearly one million small businesses are truly the backbone of New Jersey’s communities, as they provide opportunities, create jobs, drive economic growth, and help make our state a great place to live and work. Hosted by NJEDA Program Manager Maggie Peters, this episode of ECONversations includes the following guests: • Dale Caldwell, Executive Director of Fairleigh Dickinson University’s Rothman Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship • Andrea Kelliher, President & CEO of the Marketing and PR Agency Positive Solutions in Robbinsville • Reggie Hallett, Co-owner of 1911 Smoke House BBQ in Trenton
