A Model for Accelerating Growth of Minority-Owned Businesses in New York City

Minority owned business strengthen our economy. From the Gotham Gazette comes news of NYC leveraging success seen elsewhere to benefit diverse communities in New York.

Under the model, the city would coordinate a broad range of players in the business-growth ecosystem: the five borough-based chambers of commerce, community development financial institutions (CDFIs), the city government’s Department of Small Business Services, public libraries, and others. CUF wants Mayor Adams to leverage his ties with business leaders to establish a similar network of major companies to participate in the small business supply chain.
