Thursday, July 15

The Hill

 

Cities across the US experienced the economic fallout of COVID-19. While the pandemic exposed many weaknesses in our economy, it also uncovered new strengths.

Many Americans started microbusinesses, online businesses with fewer than 10-employees, and found a new avenue to economic mobility. As cities look to re-build in a more inclusive and resilient matter, what role can microbusinesses play?

On Thursday, July 15, The Hill hosts mayors and entrepreneurs from across the country for a virtual conversation on how microbusinesses could re-energize our cities.

Featuring:

James Brainard, Mayor, Carmel, IN

John Giles, Mayor, Mesa, AZ

David Holt, Mayor, Oklahoma City, OK

Denise Larell, Owner, Denise Larell Hair Studio

Daniella Levine Cava, Mayor, Miami-Dade County, FL

Steven Reed, Mayor, Montgomery, AL

Brandon Scott, Mayor, Baltimore, MD

Nan Whaley, Mayor, Dayton, OH

Natasha Williams, Owner, Natasha Nails
