What

Join Small Business Majority, Good Business Colorado and a panel of small business owners at Denver Startup Week!


Have you ever seen an entrepreneur on the news and wondered how they got there? Civic engagement can not only raise awareness for your small business, but can also make you an invaluable member of your community. Join this panel of entrepreneurs to hear about their journey of supporting their community through advocacy. Learn how action can be an opportunity for small business owners to achieve systemic change that supports a vibrant startup community, all while giving your business visibility and supporting your own values. Ask yourself these questions: If policy is going to work for someone, why not have it work for me? How can I uplift my business while I support my community?
