The UALR College of Business is partnering with Arkansas Business to host its annual Power Breakfast Friday, Oct. 24.

The title of the event, “Lessons from the trenches — ‘how I built it,’” will be held from 8:30 to 10 a.m. at the Little Rock Marriott. The $40 fee includes breakfast.

The event will feature an executive panel with three business leaders sharing their experiences building successful organizations and discussing ways to navigate the pitfalls that beset would-be entrepreneurs.

The three panelists include Johnny Allison, chairman and co-founder of Home BancShares Inc. of Conway; Cameron Smith, president and founder of Cameron Smith & Associates of Rogers; and Georgia Mjartan, executive director of Our House of Little Rock and a former Donaghey Scholar at UALR.

The three will discuss ways to navigate the pitfalls that beset would-be entrepreneurs.
