We’re dedicated to supporting the small businesses that help our economy thrive – from main street shops to tech startups. That’s why we partner with entrepreneurship support organizations (ESOs) – such as the Black Innovation Alliance, the D’Aniello Institute for Veterans and Military Families - IVMF, MEDA - Metropolitan Economic Development Association, reSET (Social Enterprise Trust), Village Capital and the Women's Business Development Council – to help provide small business owners with tools and resources for success. In 2023, our ESO partners reached more than 2 million entrepreneurs! #SmallBusinessWeek #SmallBiz #Entrepreneurs
