In 2023, SCORE helped start 31,167 new businesses, creating 120,948 non-owner jobs; 91% of SCORE's "in business" clients were still in business at the end of 2023 and 48% of "in business" clients reported an increase in revenue.
In this webinar, you'll hear firsthand from our dedicated SCORE mentors about how they utilized their expertise to help local small business owners and how you can become a SCORE Mentor and make a difference in your community.
