FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (April 8, 2021) – The Cape Cod Commission is pleased to present the second round of its COVID-19 Recovery and Resiliency Workshop Series, an initiative designed to support business owners who are navigating the economic impacts of the pandemic and planning for future resiliency. This round of virtual workshops will introduce COVID-19 Recovery and Resiliency Toolkits.
The toolkits span a broad range of subject areas including online sales and marketing, risk assessment, and collaboration/networking practices. Participants will learn about industry-specific strategies tailored to address the challenges facing Cape Cod businesses. The webinar series schedule is as follows:
- April 26 at 3:00 PM: Food Service & Restaurant Businesses
- April 28 at 3:00 PM: Retail & Product-Based Businesses
- April 29 at 6:00 PM: Accommodations Businesses
- May 3 at 4:00 PM: Arts, Culture & Recreation Businesses
- May 4 at 3:00 PM: Service-Based Businesses
This round of virtual workshops builds on an initial presentation of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and other funding resources, and the first round of workshops which introduced the Commission’s broader business recovery and resiliency efforts and provided examples of business resiliency and continuity in action. The presentation slides and video recordings from these workshops are available here.
This workshop series is funded by a U.S. Economic Development Administration CARES Act grant and is designed to help support Cape Cod businesses as they recover from the impacts of the pandemic and increase their resiliency. The Cape Cod Commission has been working with Boston-based consultant Revby to facilitate the workshops, develop the economic resiliency toolkits, and identify relevant strategies for local and regional economic recovery.
All interested Cape Cod business owners are invited to attend this free workshop series, but space is limited, and registration is required. Business owners unable to attend their own industry’s workshop are encouraged to participate in a different workshop that fits their schedule.
