Enabling the success of entrepreneurs is more important today than ever before. For small business owners, access to mentors, education and capital can make or break a business. And providing them with the means — and the network — to grow and develop their businesses can have a huge impact on the global economy. That's why, at this year's Davos World Economic Forum, Goldman Sachs and the Huffington Post joined forces to shine a light on what is working for small business owners in today’s business environment.
Supporting entrepreneurship has long been a focus of Goldman Sachs, as such we have made a commitment to small business owners — domestically and abroad — through two key philanthropic initiatives:
1. 10,000 Women is a five-year, $100 million global initiative to help grow local economies by providing 10,000 underserved female small business owners with a business management education, access to mentors and networks, and links to capital.

2. 10,000 Small Businesses is a $500 million investment to help small businesses create jobs and drive economic growth by providing a practical business education, the opportunity to access capital, and business support services. The program is now active in eleven markets across the country.
