    Last Tuesday, our esteemed Business Consultant, Elizabeth Goldbach, delivered an engaging presentation on the comprehensive range of services offered by the SBDC to the local chapter of Rotary International. Rotary’s commitment to service, integrity, and the advancement of global understanding and goodwill through the fellowship of business, professional, and community leaders closely aligns with the mission of the SBDC. During the event, Elizabeth connected with the chapter president, Steve Belcher, and Dr. Leena Plavumkal—a valued SBDC client and 2023 Distinguished Entrepreneur Awards nominee. Southwest Florida and the SBDC are fortunate to have Elizabeth's dedication and expertise supporting our community.
