Abstract

Small businesses are critical to the economic health of our country. According to the Small Business Administration, small businesses make up 99.7% of U.S. employer firms and over 60% of net new private sector jobs. Their potential to boost America's competitiveness, innovation and economic growth is tremendous. With a little help, small businesses have the power to transform cities. To do this, public-private partnerships are essential. By leveraging a partnership-driven model backed by the commitment of national and local leaders, we can strengthen American entrepreneurship and really make a difference in cities across the nation.
