We stand firm in our conviction that Main Street is rightfully the heart of the American economic system. While corporate America garners a lot of attention, 99% of all businesses are in fact, small businesses. Small businesses drive a large part of the economy, but we have never been great at banding together to build on our shared experience.
The Spark Business Institute (SBI) works to do just that. We help business owners understand and improve their own businesses. We also think a lot about the larger landscape of “Main Street” America. We envision a community-based economic model that works to create stronger, more vibrant Main Streets, delivering what is needed to compete with global corporate interests. Together we will drive Main Street business to the forefront of the American economy.
Connect with the Spark business community to stay informed and become part of the Main Street Revolution.
