Small business community comes together at National Small Business Week Virtual Summit

A three-day National Small Business Week (NSBW) virtual summit was held this month, with a focus on helping small businesses to leverage services and funding to assist with recovery and building back better than before.

Isabella Casillas Guzman, Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator, said: “Our 2021 National Small Business Week Virtual Summit put a spotlight on the more than 32 million small businesses and innovative startups that are the beating heart of our nation’s economy.

“I’m proud that our dedicated SBA team was able to facilitate so many timely, thought-provoking conversations. And, I am thankful to the renowned business leaders and corporate partners who helped us deliver innovative programming to our incredible network of resource partners and customers. Throughout NSBW 2021, we have celebrated the resilience, creativity, and determination of our nation’s small businesses while connecting them with resources and tools to recover and help build our nation’s economy back better.”

The summit concluded with Gateway to Success -  attendees were provided a virtual overview of SBA field office resources available nationally to help businesses start, grow, expand and recover, with guidance on how to get connected to the powerful network of small businesses entrepreneurs locally.

22 educational sessions were on offer, and although the event has now ended, content and information are still available online for anyone registered to review.

On-Demand videos are now available through the NSBW registration page on score.org and the SBA Channel on YouTube.
