Second Act Business Summit is a free virtual event featuring 30 experts discussing business foundations, strategy, branding, systems, mindset, and AI.
LONG BEACH, CA, UNITED STATES, February 23, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Second Act Business Summit, a free, six-day virtual learning experience designed to help experienced professionals turn their ideas, passions, and expertise into meaningful second careers or ventures, runs March 2-7, 2026. Featuring 30 expert speakers, the Summit offers actionable guidance, community support, networking, and more than $2,500 worth of business tools and bonuses.
Across six days of virtual interviews, participants will explore key topics including business foundations, marketing and visibility, strategy, systems, finance, personal branding, mindset, and the use of AI in small ventures. Each speaker brings real-world insight into what it takes to start or reshape a business at any stage of life.
“So many talented, experienced people have ideas and skills that could become something more if they just had the right inspiration, tools, and support,” said Leslie A.M. Smith, Summit host and veteran consultant, facilitator, and author. “This Summit isn’t just theory. The 30-minute podcast-style conversations are lively, honest, and incredibly practical. It’s designed to provide people with options and real steps they can take now, whether they plan to launch a business, transition careers, grow a creative pursuit, or expand what they’re already doing.”
The Summit is entirely virtual, allowing attendees to participate on their own schedule. In addition, attendees do not need to be near retirement to benefit. They do not need to plan an immediate career change, they only need curiosity, openness, and a desire to explore what’s next.
In addition to inspiring sessions, each speaker is offering a free resource or business tool to help attendees take immediate action. Summit registration also includes access to bonus content on Saturday, focused on sharpening essential skills such as business systems, workflows, brand development, and visibility strategies.
