Consumers make choices every day, and Small Business Week reminds us why.
Supporting National Small Business Week, which is being celebrated this week, provides a roadmap for how the government and the public can support the difference-makers in our economy.
We know small businesses create nearly two out of every three new jobs in this country. Shopping at small businesses helps Americans improve their communities and create jobs in their local economies.
Partnering with companies like Twitter and Microsoft, the SBA is hosting exciting events in communities across the country and online at www.sba.gov/smallbusinessweek.
Each event will bring more tools, tips and resources to America’s 28 million small businesses, in conjunction with efforts to help businesses take their companies to the next level.
We’ll be joined by local leaders and successful entrepreneurs, including Henry and Tom Bloch (founders of H&R Block), Jim Koch (founder of Sam Adams and the Boston Beer Company), and John Schnatter (founder of Papa John’s Pizza).
Here are a few ways for you to join us in celebrating National Small Business Week:
Participate online from anywhere in the world. Events and webinars will be live-streamed at www.sba.gov/smallbusinessweek.
Visit a local small business and post Tweets and Facebook updates using #SBW2014 to highlight National Small Business Week.
Small businesses are the cornerstone of our great nation. Entrepreneurialism is central to our country’s spirit.
Now more than ever, opportunities are available to all Americans, and during National Small Business Week, we are thrilled to celebrate innovative entrepreneurs and help small business owners get the tools and resources they need to become the next great American success story.
