Small Business Resources

The Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce and the Metro Atlanta Council for Entrepreneurship are proud supporters of the Georgia Department of Economic Development’s (GDEcD) Small Business & Innovation (SBI) Division’s Entrepreneurial Friendly initiative that provides a community-based program that helps create an entrepreneur environment, building entrepreneur and small business strategy into the community’s overall economic development strategies.

The Metro Atlanta Council of Entrepreneurship recommends that above all else, you join your local chamber of commerce. These organizations are often at the heart of almost every important issue in your local community and offer the best networking opportunities at a local level for small businesses. Thanks to the Council’s partnership with the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce, members of the Gwinnett Chamber with fewer than 250 employees are also a member of the Council at no additional cost.
