Why Attend the Wylie Entrepreneur Expo?
For All Entrepreneurs, of Every Level.
No Matter Where You are in Your Entrepreneurial Journey, We Have Someone to Help You Get to the Next Level.
Breakout Sessions
Bring your questions to ask an entrepreneur who has already been in a spot where you are now! Join us for an unforgettable event filled with inspiring speakers and interactive breakout sessions.
Discover the Power of Entrepreneurship
Fuel your entrepreneurial spirit at the Wylie Entrepreneur Expo! Immerse yourself in a captivating event featuring thought-provoking speakers, engaging breakout sessions, and exclusive one-on-one mentoring sessions. Join us for an unforgettable experience that will inspire and empower you to take your business to new heights.
Unleash Your Entrepreneurial Potential
Network! Network! Network! with other attendees, speakers and at our expo tables.
Resource Partners
Most business owners and entrepreneurs do not realize that there are resources out there to help you along with your business. We will have a lot of them UNDER ONE ROOF for this event!
It Only Takes ONE Session...
Experience the transformational power of a single session with our local experts. Discover new strategies, gain valuable insights, and unlock your full potential. Don’t underestimate the impact one session can have. It’s time to make a lasting change.
Keynote to Close
We’re saving the best for last. Closing the day with Brandon Hurtado — who’s grown Hurtado Barbecue from one restaurant in Arlington into locations across Arlington, Dallas, Fort Worth, and Mansfield (with more on the way) means you get the full afternoon of breakout sessions and networking first, then wrap up with his story before you head out.
