Berkeley College’s 11th annual Women’s Entrepreneurship Week event brings together student entrepreneurs and women- and minority-led community businesses to learn, connect, and turn ideas into action. This year’s theme, “The Smart Hustle: AI for Small Business,” will share best practices on how aspiring entrepreneurs can use AI in ways that are practical, accessible, and immediately useful – not as another technology buzzword, but as a tool that can help small business owners save time, reduce costs, improve marketing and operations, and compete more effectively. 
This event is open to students, alumni, and the community. Space is limited and registration is required. To learn more about sponsorships for our 2026 event, email <a href="mailto:KME@BerkeleyCollege.edu" rel="noopener" target="_blank">KME@BerkeleyCollege.edu</a>.

PRISM Tax Intelligence

Taxes are complicated enough. Findin

PRISM Tax Intelligence

PRISM Tax Intelligence is an independent Brooklyn tax practice providing individual tax preparation, tax planning, projections, and help with IRS and state tax issues. We work with straightforward returns as well as more complicated situations involving self-employment, investments, capital gains, retirement income, equity compensation, multiple states, amended returns, and tax notices. A simple return should stay simple. A complicated situation deserves more than simply entering numbers into tax software. PRISM combines experienced tax judgment with modern technology to help identify what matters, explain the numbers clearly, and catch issues before they become filing-season surprises. Clients work directly with the tax professional handling their situation. We focus on clear communication, transparent pricing, and practical answers without unnecessary complexity. PRISM also works with clients throughout the year when a financial decision may have tax consequences, including estimated payments, withholding, investment transactions, retirement decisions, business income, and major life changes. Tax preparation starts at $175. Tax planning starts at $150. Introductory consultations are free. Need a return prepared or have a tax question? Contact PRISM and tell us what you’re dealing with. We’ll tell you whether we can help and what the next step looks like.
