- Ashley D. Bell, regional administrator, U.S. Small Business Administrator, Region IV

- Mack Bernard, commissioner, Palm Beach County
- Kelly Smallridge, president & CEO, Business Development Board of Palm Beach County
Small businesses throughout Palm Beach County are struggling to navigate the uncertainty of COVID-19. Businesses have had to shift to operating outside of the normal, and so many questions remain unanswered…How do I maintain financially? What loans are available to me now, how do I get them, and when do I have to repay them? What happens when this is over?
"This teleconference series is for Small/Minority/Women businesses owners to find answers to the questions they have about functioning in this 'new normal'," said Tonya Davis Johnson, director of the Palm Beach County Office of Equal Business Opportunity. "Through this forum, our office is committed to providing our business community the most up-to-date, pertinent information possible."
"Tuesday's Tips" takes place every Tuesday at 1 p.m. Anyone interested can dial in to (929) 205-6099, Meeting ID: 411 263 931. Participants may email questions for the guest speakers to asmith5@pbcgov.org.
