Chase commitment to support small businesses and
entrepreneurs
JPMorgan Chase continues to invest in its Small Business
Forward initiative which aims to help small businesses run by
women, minorities and veterans with both the capital and technical
assistance they need to grow.
Chase for Business shares research, resources and thought
leadership through local and national events, including the release
of its annual Business Leaders Outlook report and online Business
Resource Center.
Additionally, the firm recently announced the:
- Creation of Advancing Black Pathways
(ABP) to build on the firm’s existing efforts helping black
Americans achieve economic success. In conjunction with the launch
of this initiative, JPMorgan Chase has also expanded the
Entrepreneurs of Color Fund to the Greater Washington region,
providing capital and business training to underserved minority
entrepreneurs in the region. To date, the program has provided more
than $40 million in funding and now operates in five regional
markets.
- To support our returning service
members, JPMorgan Chase also recently announced additional support
for Bunker Labs, a nonprofit that helps active duty and
veteran-owned startups. As Bunker Labs continues to inspire
veterans to start their own businesses, JPMorgan Chase’s new $3
million commitment supports the organization’s national expansion
and provides the necessary education, resources and networks to
veteran entrepreneurs.
