Veteran business owners play a significant role in the US economy.
In 2016, the US Census Bureau reported that veterans own a whopping 7.5% of small businesses in the US – that’s 405,235 businesses out of 5.4 million nationwide! SCORE has compiled resources that will help veterans start or grow their businesses.
Hispanic entrepreneurs are the fastest-growing group of business owners in the U.S.
With the advice of SCORE mentors and Hispanic business leaders we have collected educational content, and online workshops to give you all the assistance you need to reach your goals. Remember, a helping hand is just a click away.
Right now, Black entrepreneurs are facing unique barriers to business success.
