Dell is a huge proponent of small businesses. From our early days in Michael Dell’s dorm room, small business and entrepreneurship have been part of who we are.

This year, we are venturing to Brooklyn, NY for a two-day EXTRAVAGANZA for small businesses.

Can’t make it to NY? We will be livestreaming via www.youtube/dell and the Dell for Business Facebook page.

The two-day event will feature games, products, giveaways, speakers, educational sessions, and more.

Dell’s small business partners including Microsoft, McAfee, Intuit Quickbooks, Salesforce, Bumble Bizz, Cosmopolitan Magazine, and more will be taking part in programming to provide valuable insights for attendees and livestream viewers.
