WASHINGTON – Small businesses are particularly vulnerable to losses caused by natural disaster, cyberattacks, and on a smaller scale structural failure—like the unreliable sprinkler system that could possibly destroy your inventory and equipment. 

One of the first steps in creating a business continuity plan involves assessing risk.  Join Agility Recovery and the U.S. Small Business Administration Tuesday, July 19, for a live online discussion on how to protect your business from the disaster threats that could cause long-term financial losses.

The SBA has partnered with Agility Recovery to offer business continuity strategies at its “PrepareMyBusiness” website. Visit www.preparemybusiness.org to access past webinars and to download disaster preparedness checklists.
