Roundpeg is focused on small business for several reasons:
- I like working with business owners. It is fun to share their passion and help them make their dreams a reality.
- I really believe the economic recovery will come from the jobs created by thousands of new of small businesses. The stronger the startup community, the stronger the community will be overall. This is one of the reasons I am so involved with Startup Weekend.
- There are a lot of small businesses!! This data from Gaebler.com shows you just how many there are in Marion County. And this doesn’t include any of the surrounding counties.
