[Nfbnet-members-list] Seeking Successful Blind Business Owners for BLAST Conference

[Kevan Worley]

Greetings Colleagues,

Business Leadership and Superior Training 
(BLAST+) for blind entrepreneurs is quickly 
approaching. I need to find some successful blind 
owners of businesses to highlight at this 
training, networking and leadership development 
event. If you know of any of the following:
1.   Blind individuals who have recently had 
successful case closures because they became 
employed as a small business owner. That is to 
say, they opened their own business with or 
without rehab support
 we need to know about them.
2.   If you are a successful blind business 
owner, I would like to hear from you. If you know 
of rehab counselors or employment specialist or 
agency self-employment specialists I would like 
to be in touch with them. We have a few 
all-expense paid trips to the BLAST+ conference 
available. The BLAST+ conference will spend 
significant time this year providing education 
and networking for those who are engaged in 
developing business ventures for the blind 
outside of the Randolph Sheppard program.

BLAST+ will occur on September 21-24 at the 
Airport Marriott in Nashville, Tennessee. 
Additional information can be found at

I look forward to hearing from any of my 
colleagues on this matter. Time is of an essence.
