Organizers for the NW Florida Venture Forum (aka the Pensacola Venture Forum) have announced that the next forum meeting will be held on March 8th, 2007 from 9 AM to 1 PM.
Interested area entrepreneurs should submit project summaries on or before March 2nd to the program committee chaired by Larry Strain, executive director for the University of West Florida Small Business Development Center, located at 401 Chase Street, Suite 100, Pensacola, Fla.
