Five years ago, I moved to New York City to pursue a dream deferred – becoming a writer. While in NYC, I discovered my inner entrepreneur via my snack food mix, Auntie Ronda’s. An entrepreneurial spirit is the life blood of NYC. It is the pulse and rhythm of the city that never sleeps. Although my background was in law, I did not know how to run a business. Fortunately, I found food incubators and resources for entrepreneurial startups located throughout all of the boroughs. These entrepreneurial centers provide free legal, tax, accounting, and marketing advice from professionals.
