'Small Business Strong' is a private and public sector partnership set up to help small businesses navigate the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. 'Small Business Strong' recognizes that our 650,000 Massachusetts small businesses are the lifeblood of our towns, cities and communities. These businesses – many of which are often women and/or minority-owned –  have been hit the hardest by the current economic fallout from COVID-19.  'Small Business Strong' wants to provide expedited, pro-bono resources to small businesses ranging from access to capital to consulting, business restructuring, business growth, digital marketing and customer engagement plans.
