Advocacy

 

AEO is leading the charge of championing the interests of entrepreneurship and small businesses in the halls of government.

AEO’s policy agenda focuses on the development of strong and effective small business initiatives to assist underserved entrepreneurs in starting, stabilizing, and expanding their businesses.

On behalf of the eco-system, we work closely with policymakers at the national level on Capitol Hill and in the Administration to ensure the availability of capital and technical assistance to entrepreneurs around the country. We also collaborate with state and local nonprofit, government agencies and other industry stakeholders on our advocacy efforts.
