Launched in 2021, this program had an explicit focus on asset-building and asset ownership to make small businesses (and nonprofits, which were also eligible to benefit from the program) more resilient and capable of building generational wealth.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-41182 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/miamifoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Miami-Open-For-Business-partners.jpg\" alt=\"Miami Open For Business partners\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" srcset=\"https:\/\/miamifoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Miami-Open-For-Business-partners.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/miamifoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Miami-Open-For-Business-partners-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/miamifoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Miami-Open-For-Business-partners-100x67.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The Approach<\/h3>\n<p>The program prioritized small business owners and nonprofit leaders in specific Miami communities that have been historically overlooked and underinvested. We developed two core ways to serve them: by providing financing and technical assistance.<\/p>\n<h4>Financial Products<\/h4>\n<p>$15 million was distributed in the form of three financial products, informed by deeply listening to stakeholders and small businesses in the community:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>The Technology and Equipment Microgrant:<\/strong> a grant of up to $20,000 that allowed entrepreneurs to invest in their business through the purchase of a technology asset or a piece of equipment, such as a pizza oven or pedicure chair.\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$3.8+ million<\/strong> distributed to 326 businesses and nonprofits<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Asset Building Loan for Entrepreneurs (ABLE):<\/strong> a low-interest loan that helped businesses and nonprofits buy inventory or a vehicle, remodel their property, or refinance predatory debt, among other purposes. Repayments will allow initial grant funds to be recycled into future community development projects.\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$4 million<\/strong> distributed to more than 60 borrowers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Collective Real Estate Ownership (CREO):<\/strong> a fully forgivable loan of up to $500,000 to help small business owners and nonprofit leaders make a down payment on commercial real estate in a historically underinvested community. Properties had to be held in a collective ownership model with another business or organization to spur shared equity.\n<ul>\n<li><strong>$6.8+ million<\/strong> allocated to help close 14 deals housing almost 40 businesses and nonprofits, demonstrating the multiplier effect of collective ownership<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4>Technical Assistance<\/h4>\n<p>Miami Open for Business also empowered entrepreneurs with knowledge. <strong>Nearly $2 million was used to build a community of technical assistance providers<\/strong> across target communities in Miami who helped businesses apply for financing, organize their books, better understand marketing, and more.\u00a0\u00a0Technical assistance providers collectively <strong>provided over 1,000 businesses<\/strong> with <strong>more than 10,000 hours of assistance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of the technical assistance program, Miami Open for Business also hosted a series of small business workshops, including what is understood to be South Florida\u2019s first-ever commercial real estate first-time buyer workshop.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-41181 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/miamifoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Miami-Open-For-Business-Technical-Assistance-Entrepreneurs.jpg\" alt=\"Miami Open For Business Technical Assistance Entrepreneurs\" width=\"1024\" height=\"731\" srcset=\"https:\/\/miamifoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Miami-Open-For-Business-Technical-Assistance-Entrepreneurs.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/miamifoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Miami-Open-For-Business-Technical-Assistance-Entrepreneurs-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/miamifoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Miami-Open-For-Business-Technical-Assistance-Entrepreneurs-100x71.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The Impact<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>66% of the program\u2019s beneficiaries were women-led organizations.<\/li>\n<li>51% of funding recipients identified as Black. 50% identified as Latino, and 6% identified as Other.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>2024 Highlights:<\/h4>\n<p>\u2705 Launched the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.strive305hub.com\/\">STRIVE305 HUB<\/a> alongside the Miami-Dade County Office of Innovation and Economic Development, an online hub for entrepreneurs<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Commissioned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catalystmiami.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Catalyst Miami<\/a> to conduct a comprehensive scan of national interventions that help businesses thrive to help inform the Foundation\u2019s future activities<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Announced Miami Open for Business\u2019 final round of ABLE loan recipients<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Closed 5 CREO small business real estate deals totaling $2.2M<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Hosted all-day small business resource festival, OFBPalooza, with over 170 attendees<\/p>\n<h3><em>Reflections from project lead Brittany Morgan, Senior Director of Economic Resilience (lightly edited for clarity):\u00a0<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>\u201cOne of the proudest accomplishments was rolling out the commercial real estate product. We mirrored this product after the City of D.C. and efforts elsewhere. We were borrowing from the first-time homebuyer down payment assistance world. We knew that it was possible to help businesses and nonprofits own their own real estate&#8230; Not only did I learn a lot, but the folks who went through this program have learned a lot.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, this learning has been so great that <strong>it&#8217;s inspired our Foundation to think about how we can invest in future community development projects<\/strong>. We&#8217;ve done several commercial deals now, but imagine a world in which we&#8217;re using our assets to help affordable housing projects get the financing that they need and helping entrepreneurs get different types of financing outside of a conventional loan. It&#8217;s really opened our eyes to the possibility of innovative finance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-41180 aligncenter\"

literacy challenges, along with language and cultural barriers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>We learned the importance of working with trusted community-based partners;<\/strong> support is more accessible when it\u2019s decentralized, and trusted partners helped us be nimbler and more innovative.<\/li>\n<li><strong>We recognized the challenges of navigating commercial real estate<\/strong>, specifically the
