In addition, attendees will have the chance to win an expenses-paid trip to attend the annual QuickBooks Connect national event in San Jose, Calif., on November 3, 2015. Confirmed speakers for the event currently include The Honest Company’s Jessica Alba, founder and chief creative officer, and Brian Lee, co-founder and chief executive officer.

Access to Top Entrepreneurs and Experts
The first winner of ‘The Apprentice’ Bill Rancic, USA Today columnist Rhonda Abrams and experts from Intuit, Square and Bigcommerce will be at QuickBooks Connect Atlanta to educate and inspire attendees.

The event also includes a panel featuring local small business owners, from Bohemian Guitars and Southern Culture Artisan Foods, who will discuss their lessons learned and successes specific to the Atlanta community.

Tips for the Sharing Economy
Small business owners, developers and accountants are not the only ones who can benefit from the event.
