Secretary Of State Connie Lawson Will Visit Bedford Thursday

Last updated on Tuesday, August 5, 2014

(BEDFORD) - Indiana Secretary of State Connie Lawson will be in Bedford Thursday at 2:30pm to meet with business owners.

Secretary Lawson will be discussing crowdfunding and the agency's new "one stop shop" for businesses.

The Chamber ask that you RSVP by Wednesday if you plan to attend.

Secretary Lawson will provide an overview of these two new initiatives, then allow plenty of time for Q&A. The event held in the conference room of the Bedford Chamber will conclude by 3:30pm.

The State's Business One-Stop portal is in the process of eliminating confusion for Hoosier business owners by offering a "one stop shop" for all business transactions within state government.

Instead of business owners registering their business with multiple state agencies, which can often times cause unnecessary stresses, the Secretary of State's office is working to make it so businesses will eventually only need to register once within the office.

The crowdfunding initiative offers a new way for Hoosier entrepreneurs to raise money in order to start or continue a business right here in Indiana with the help of Hoosier investors.

Not only will this strengthen the state's economy, but it also opens the door to a new type of Hoosier investor.
