Accessing Cook County Business Resources

Presented by the Cook County Bureau of Economic Development and Commissioner Scott Britton.

Cook County offers a variety of small business services tailored to pandemic recovery.  The Chamber will welcome Commissioner Scott Britton and representatives from the County’s Bureau of Economic Development to outline these opportunities and explain how business owners can benefit from them.
 
The Bureau of Economic Development created its Community Recovery Initiative to provide financial relief and support services to help suburban Cook County residents and small businesses rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic. More funding is on the way, with Cook County expected to receive over $1 billion from the federal American Rescue Plan Act of 2021

The Zoom discussion will address:

• Free one-to-one advising for business owners
• Partnerships to support manufacturers
• Opportunities to suggest future funding priorities
