• Programs for SMBs: Local Rewards Program, SOAR Initiative, ReLocate Program, etc.
• What’s a recent SMB success win in your city that you’re genuinely proud of?
• What part of your economic development work do you think is most misunderstood but actually matters a lot?
• What’s one assumption about small businesses that your team has had to unlearn?
• If you could redesign your support for businesses from scratch today, what would you stop doing immediately?
