Access to capital is essential to the survival of all small businesses no matter their stage. Whether you’re a startup or an established business of 20 years, you’re always on the lookout for capital that will help to sustain and grow your operations. Unfortunately, traditional lending institutions have intentionally created barriers for BIPOC communities in accessing their loans, particularly among Indigenous small businesses. Layer in banking deserts and the barriers are exacerbated.

Thankfully, organizations across our state have made significant strides in addressing these gaps through innovative approaches aimed at supporting New Mexico’s Indigenous small business owners.

We invite you to an important in-person event where you’ll learn about products and resources that will support you in navigating capital access. Join Change Labs, New Mexico Community Capital, Nusenda and Small Business Majority for this free event.
