Join us to learn about the 2009 Competition -- dates, times, requirements. And hear from last year's winners--Tim Holmgren, entrepreneur track winner, and Mark Drew, student track winner -- who will share how they approached the Competition and what they learned from the experience.

Also, Jim Grace, president of InsureMyTrip.com, will speak on how he built one of the state's fastest-growing companies and what it takes to go from plan to profits.

Free and open to the public, but pre-registration is required.

Parking is available nearby -- either metered parking on the street, in the garage at Providence Place Mall, or at the RI Convention Center garage.
