The historic joint effort is detailed in a partnership agreement signed by SBA Administrator Aida Alvarez and Denver Mayor Wellington Webb, president of USCM, during a ceremony held this week in Washington. With this agreement, the Conference of Mayors and the SBA are cementing a relationship that will help entrepreneurs all across the country establish and build small businesses.
Small businesses are the building blocks of sustainable communities.
This is an arena where our interests clearly coincide with those of the Conference of Mayors. USCM is the official nonpartisan organization of cities with populations greater than 30,000. USCM focuses national urban policy that affects the sustainable development and growth of cities across the United States.
