Why This Event?
And that's a great question!
Running a business can feel like an endless cycle of decisions, deadlines, and distractions. You spend so much time in the day-to-day that the bigger picture starts to fade.
Whiteboards N Wine is a space designed to change that. It’s not another networking event or motivational talk. It’s a working session disguised as a relaxed evening with great company and good wine.
You’ll sit down with other business owners who understand what it means to carry the weight of growth, staff, cash flow, and time pressure. Together, you’ll discuss real challenges and workshop clear, actionable next steps.
