MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Fourth Annual Small Business Expo kicks off Thursday.

    The program has invested $9 million into businesses and created more than 600 jobs.

    “Small businesses are the backbone of our local economy,” said Massey. “Through Entrepreneurship City, we’re working alongside the City of Memphis to ensure founders have access to the connections, resources, and support systems that help turn great ideas into impact.”
