For more than 50 years, the U.S. Small Business Administration has celebrated National Small Business Week (NSBW), which recognizes the critical contributions of America’s entrepreneurs and small business owners. This last year is one unlike the half-century that has come before. We are facing unique challenges together. However, American small businesses continue to play a central role in building a strong country, prepared for any obstacles in the future.
During National Small Business Week, we honor and celebrate our small businesses as the heart and soul of our business community and as drivers of our local economy. The Denton Chamber of Commerce will be celebrating these businesses April 28-May 3. This is a community-wide event in which all businesses may participate and all community members may submit nominations for Small Business Awards.
