3C Small Business Week
National Small Business Week 2020 has been postponed by the Small Business Administration due to the coronavirus pandemic.
While made with the best intentions, the postponement comes at a difficult and challenging time for American small businesses. Social distancing has forced millions of business owners to choose between their livelihoods or the law, while a now-closed loophole allowed large corporations to swallow billions in small business funds. Even as states slowly reopen, small business owners and employees must adopt increased safety measures and Personal Protection Equipment that could eat up significant portions of their budget.
At 3C, we believe Small Business Week can and should go on – just in a different form than it has in years past. That’s why we’re celebrating 3C Small Business Week beginning May 4.
To help small businesses affected by the current economic crisis, we’ve put together daily programming to help your small business grow online and survive COVID-19.
