Chamber Looking For Best New Small Business
CEO Business Centers and the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce are looking for the county’s best new small business, and they’re offering a reward.
As part of their Amazing Entrepreneur competition, business plans can be submitted from Gwinnett small businesses, proving their mettle and providing evidence “of the potential to create and stabilize employment in Gwinnett County and … show potential for growth in such areas as profits and revenue.”
The winner will get a year of free office space, a year of free membership to the Chamber and thousands more dollars of in-kind donations and software.
“Gwinnett County is founded on small business. It’s what we do best,” Board of Commissioners Vice Chair Shirley Lasseter said. “We are excited to see the business community collaborate in such an innovative way to ensure that the backbone of our community continues to flourish.”
The program — also in partnership with the University of Georgia’s Small Business Development Center — is aimed at fostering new business development that will raise the per capita income and improve the quality of life in Gwinnett County, officials said.
