CSM Vice President of Continuing Education and Workforce Development Dan Mosser, left, and Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Director Kelly Robertson-Slagle welcomed Southern Maryland entrepreneurs at tour stops at CSM campuses in La Plata, Leonardtown and Prince Frederick. The tour bus was equipped with a small recording studio and technical services to assist business owners in videotaping their pitches. The videos will be entered into a state-wide competition to bring exposure and potential investors to their businesses.
