Learn best practices to win contracts and protect your business.
If you run a consulting business, your client service agreement is one of the most important documents you'll ever put in front of a client. It sets expectations, protects your work, and helps you avoid disputes before they start. But knowing what to include can feel overwhelming.
Join us for a practical workshop on the terms every consulting business needs in its client agreements. You'll learn how to:
Identify which terms you need based on how your business actually works
Understand the standard terms that belong in every agreement
Weigh optional terms you might add, and why they could be worth including
This event format showcases how we have something to learn from everyone.

Explore how their success strengthens families, expands economic opportunity, and builds a more equitable Baltimore.
Caregiving is essential to our families, our communities, and our economy—but the people providing care don’t always get the support they need to thrive. From parents and family caregivers to professional care workers, caregivers make it possible for others to work, build businesses, and participate fully in our economy. So what would it look like to recognize caregiving as an essential part of Baltimore’s economic success?
Join Impact Hub Baltimore for a Network Breakfast exploring how we can better support caregivers and strengthen the systems that make care accessible, sustainable, and valued. Connect with community members, entrepreneurs, and local leaders to share perspectives, spark new connections, and explore opportunities to build an economy where caregivers—and the people who depend on them—can thrive.
The Network Breakfast connects you with the expertise that flows within the decade-long relationships we’ve built and the tremendous grassroots leadership that serves as the fabric of this city. All participants will be offered a FREE day passto return to Impact Hub for follow-up meetings and actions.

Event Context
In 2025, Impact Hub Baltimore celebrated 10 years of building community and driving progress in Baltimore City. Throughout the year, we will elevate the people and innovations that have shaped where we have been and where we are going next.
The Network Breakfast series will mobilize thought partners across our network that represent the institutions, organizations, entrepreneurs, and community leaders committed to building civic wealth.
These events will build insights and relationships that spark intentional systems change. Our dynamic network of leaders will share innovative models that demonstrate our ability to move past the status quo and build more effective, equitable outcomes. We will engage in dialogue around abundance mindsets, cooperative models, community redevelopment, and local procurement.
Participants will leave feeling more informed and inspired. They will also be empowered to ground their decision-making in the pragmatic advice and lived experience of small business owners and local leaders. Discussions will be tailored to surface what is true, what is possible, and what can be done to alleviate barriers and expand opportunities for growing civic and community wealth.
