Small Businesses Benefit from Summer Workshops

Beaver Valley LaunchBox successfully hosted a series of summer workshops designed to help small businesses thrive. These workshops attracted an excellent turnout from Beaver County’s small business community, fostering valuable connections and equipping participants with practical knowledge to boost their businesses.  

The three workshops focused on essential topics for small businesses: Social Media Marketing, Canva Designs, and Generative AI, all led by experts in the field. Participants developed their marketing strategies, created ready-to-use flyers, and crafted social media calendars during these workshops. The B-Hive has become a central space for local entrepreneurs to grow their businesses and network with like-minded individuals. 

Beaver Valley LaunchBox, an Invent Penn State initiative, is an early-stage business accelerator program for entrepreneurs. We assist in the business development process by connecting community members to local resources and providing ongoing education and programming. We also offer access to Penn State University legal clinic services. 

The B-Hive, a non-profit group located at 1317 Seventh Ave., Beaver Falls, has vision to be the hub that educates and connects local entrepreneurs to the support, resources and facilities they need to build a sustainable and scalable business with a viable plan for growth.
