Tech Tools for Small Business Financial Health – Washington, DC

Small businesses are using new financial technologies to grow and prosper, and these benefits offer particular value for small businesses in historically underserved communities and main street America. This forum will explore how new financial technologies are expanding financial access and speeding commerce for small businesses. The discussion will also address how federal policy efforts can impact the health of small businesses, including Congressional financial regulatory relief legislation, White House government modernization plans, and the CFPB’s pending small business lending rulemaking.
