Raleigh's Small Business Development team, a division within the City's Department of Housing and Neighborhoods, is looking to closely partner with the beating heart of the city's economy: small businesses. The latest step in this initiative is the newly launched Annual Small Business Survey, specifically aimed at businesses with no more than 50 employees. The survey, as shared on the City of Raleigh's official website, is designed to "create partnerships" and "identify best practices" that bolster development and educational opportunities for start-ups, small ventures, and minority-owned businesses.
This annual check-in not only seeks to help these enterprises to thrive but also appears to be a concerted effort to broadly understand the unique challenges and needs they face. By taking part in the survey, small business owners are assured that they are directly contributing to the "success of small business development in Raleigh." The survey is accessible through a link provided by the City of Raleigh.
Editor's Note: This article has been updated to clarify which City of Raleigh division oversees the Annual Small Business Survey.
