Access to capital is crucial for business growth—and yet, Black entrepreneurs received less than .5% of VC dollars in 2024. Furthermore, Black and Latine entrepreneurs who are considered low-risk applicants are nearly 20% less likely to receive full funding for SBA loans, and over 10% more likely to be denied loans altogether. ESO is here to eliminate systemic barriers to access with capital funding for Black and Brown-owned businesses. We’re here to be Your First Yes: the investors that even the playing field to provide your business the funding it deserves.

Support Black-Owned Businesses This Summer: Here's Why Supporting Black-owned businesses, especially during the slower summer months, brings numerous benefits to the community and the economy: 1. Economic Empowerment: Your support helps create jobs, promote economic growth, and build wealth within Black communities, contributing to a more equitable society. 2. Diverse Products and Services: Black-owned businesses often offer unique and culturally rich products and services, providing fresh and innovative choices for consumers. 3. Community Development: By supporting these businesses, you help strengthen local neighborhoods, as many Black entrepreneurs reinvest in their communities through various initiatives and programs. 4. Closing the Racial Wealth Gap: Increased patronage can help reduce the racial wealth gap by providing Black business owners with the capital and resources needed to grow and sustain their ventures. 5. Representation and Inspiration: Supporting Black-owned businesses promotes representation and can inspire future generations of Black entrepreneurs to pursue their dreams. 6. Social Impact: Your support can have a ripple effect, encouraging others to follow suit and fostering a more inclusive and supportive economic environment. This summer, make a conscious effort to support Black-owned businesses. Your patronage matters and can make a significant difference during the slower months. Together, we can build stronger, more vibrant communities. #blackowned #blackownedbusinesses #supportblackbusinesses #supportourcommunity #sofloblackpages #shopblackownedbusinesses

▪ In Recognition of Black Business Month at Access Mode! Did you know as of 2019, Black business owners own 3.5 million businesses and employ more than 1.2 million people?
