On November 9-10, 2011 the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System hosted a forum entitled Small Business and Entrepreneurship during
an Economic Recovery in collaboration with the Federal Reserve Bank of
Atlanta and the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation.
This forum brought together experts from a range of disciplines to share
their perspectives on small business issues, including ideas around the
financing and technical needs of small businesses and entrepreneurs, and
the important role these firms are playing in creating jobs during the
current economic environment. It was also organized to address some of
the unique issues and challenges faced by women- and minority-owned firms
as a way to identify research, policy, and practice recommendations to
better support these groups.
Materials from this event (conference papers, video clips, transcripts,
and speaker presentations) have been posted materials to the Federal
Reserve Board’s website, viewable by clicking here.
For questions about this forum, feel free to contact Board Senior
Community Affairs Analyst, Kyan Bishop, at Kyan.J.Bishop@frb.gov.
