EMPOWERING. ENTREPENUERS.
Together.
Unlock your entrepreneurial potential and join a community of successful Black and African American entrepreneurs through the Inclusivity Project. Our upcoming business courses, designed for new and scaling business owners, will provide you with the tools and knowledge needed to succeed.
The SBDC’s Inclusivity Project believes that entrepreneurship is a powerful tool for creating economic prosperity for everyone.
Born out of a desire to help the disproportionate number of Black-owned businesses affected by the pandemic regain their footing faster, The IP program provides practical, actionable steps designed specifically to support black-owned business owners to start, grow, and/or continue to thrive.
ABOUT THE INCLUSIVITY PROJECT
The Inclusivity Project is a collaboration of SBDC and the Black and African American chambers who are working together to provide the training and expert business advising to foster longevity and economic viability for Northern California’s Black and African American entrepreneurs and their businesses. Program sponsorship for FFY 22/23 is generously provided by WELLS FARGO BANK.
Through this collaboration, The Inclusivity Project offers your business free one-on-one advising and access to free live and online workshops and training designed to elevate your business’s revenue and access to capital.
