BERLIN, Md.- For the first time ever, the Berlin Chamber of Commerce will host a Financial Literacy Series to help connect local entrepreneurs with resources to grow their businesses.

Executive Director Ryan Nellans said they’re in the business of helping businesses and that the objective was to create a mini semester of valuable business information tailored to local small business to help them thrive.

He added that they want their members to get the most from their memberships while also supporting local entrepreneurs. “If we can be a vehicle for condensing and creating a curriculum for that, that’s something that will improve a number of small local business and make them more resilient,” Nellans said.
