Verizon has just announced a new learning platform for small businesses—Verizon Small Business Digital Ready—in partnership with LISC. The menu of free digital resources to help entrepreneurs plan, manage and grow their businesses is the latest collaboration between LISC and Verizon to support community-rooted enterprises reeling from the pandemic’s economic fallout.
Since April 2020, LISC has distributed $17.5 million in grants from Verizon to nearly 1,700 small businesses, most of them women- and BIPOC-owned.
