Implementation and Impact
The Office of Economic Opportunity and Inclusion is gearing up to open applications for the spring cohort of BizUnlocked Boston, a business access program that connects small business owners to the resources, expertise, and relationships they need to build lasting businesses that create jobs, stability, and sustainability in our local communities.
- With over 80 applicants during the pilot program, the funds for this proposal are helping to ensure the continuation of a new City of Boston initiative that aims to meet a clear need among newer small business owners that are in the first 3 years of their operation.
