Historically marginalized residents face inequities in managing businesses, access to capital, and access to networks, widening our country's racial wealth gap and shrinking economic potential. This roadmap helps city leaders take actionable steps to improve racial and social equity while expanding economic opportunity. Best practices include cataloging a full network of entrepreneurship support organizations, developing a plan for inclusive entrepreneurship and track metrics, and building a presence in the community to enhance access.
