Hope Small Business Expo

A Campus-Wide Celebration of Small Business, Entrepreneurship & Community

The Hope Small Business Expo is expanding into a campus-wide experience designed to bring entrepreneurs, businesses, community partners, and supporters together in one dynamic marketplace.

This November, 50+ vendors will fill the Center of Hope campus, transforming both sides of the courtyard and the gym into a vibrant showcase of small businesses, entrepreneurs, products, services, creativity, and innovation.

The Expo is more than a place to set up a table. It is an opportunity to connect businesses with customers, entrepreneurs with one another, and the community with the people and ideas driving local economic activity.

From emerging ventures and solopreneurs to established small businesses, the Expo will create space for businesses to:

  • Showcase their products and services

  • Connect directly with potential customers

  • Build relationships with other entrepreneurs

  • Increase visibility and brand awareness

  • Generate sales and new business opportunities

  • Expand their networks and community connections

At the heart of the Expo is a simple belief: when small businesses have opportunities to connect, grow, and circulate resources within their communities, everyone benefits.
