It takes a village, and what better village than NYC! An example of successful public private partnerships for #smallbusinessgrowth: #NYCSmallBusinessOpportunityFund, $85M disbursed, 80% to underserved, 8 local CDFIs involved plus Goldman Sachs, NYC Department of Small Business Services, Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth, Community Reinvestment Fund, USA. Thanks Elissa Bard for making The Acceleration Project part of this convening and working session to collectively share best practices and move together to help #smallbusinessgrowth. Good to see Brian Gurski from TruFund Financial Services, Nancy Carin from BOC Capital Corp., Maria Paulino from Accompany Capital. Good to meet Lillian Vail, Colleen Galvin. An honor to listen to Office of Mayor-Elect Eric Adams, Maria Torres-Springer, Jessica Taylor, Yanki Tshering of Accompany Capital, Jessie Lee of Renaissance Economic Development Corporation
Inspiring indeed to see the public and private sector coming together and having The Acceleration Project augment their #SmallBusiness Support initiatives!!!
A wonderful celebration of what is possible if we all work together! We learned so much from our fellow CDFIs.
