Capacity Building for Capacity Builders Conference

Following the momentum of last year’s sold-out event, this year’s workshop will once again bring together technical assistance providers, ecosystem leaders, and community builders to:

• Share best practices
• Explore emerging strategies
• Build a more equitable and inclusive entrepreneurial ecosystem

Sponsored by Loyola University Chicago’s Quinlan School of Business, this collaborative event offers meaningful opportunities for connection, professional development, and collective action—all with the goal of strengthening capacity-building efforts that serve minority-owned businesses across Chicago.

This event is part of Quinlan’s three-year initiative funded by the U.S. Small Business Administration to address inequality in the city’s small business landscape.

We hope you’ll join us in elevating the work of capacity builders and advancing inclusive economic growth in underserved communities.
