the lazy entrepreneur's economic growth conference

The Lazy Entrepreneur Economic Growth conference was founded by Lazy, Serial Entrepreneur, Jessica Lewis. Jessica has founded and scaled over 12 successful companies and desires to bring her success, tips, and partners directly to you so you don’t have to work that hard. Jessica is currently a TRUIST Foundation and Watson Institute Fellow and is hosting this conference as a way to help entrepreneurs find an easier way to start a business and scale without all of the hurdles like long lonely hours, money loss, and repeated failures. 

To inspire, educate, and equip “lazy” (i.e., work-smart-not-hard) entrepreneurs, side-hustlers, and small business owners with practical strategies for building wealth, scaling ventures, and contributing to economic growth — without burnout.

Economic growth is also often seen as a positive development because it can lead to higher standards of living, increased employment opportunities, and greater access to goods and services. However, it can also lead to negative consequences such as environmental degradation, income inequality, and social tensions. Our conference will address all of these concerns both positive and negative in a productive, light way to help dispel myths around being an entrepreneur. 

 These resources will aid you in helping direct your path of entrepreneurship. Jessica’s 501 (c)(3), Mobu Enterprises Foundation helps community members increase their economic growth through green trades training (training within the sustainability industry) and green trades startups.
