Small Business Administration: Restaurant Revitalization Fund & Shuttered Venue Operators Grant
May 12, 2021
We pre-recorded today's conversation with Carl Knoblock, District Director for Virginia with the Small Business Administration to learn the details for the American Rescue Plan's Restaurant Revitalization Fund & Shuttered Venue Operators Grant.
Carl explained each of the two programs including who they're meant to help, how to apply and where. We talked about the process for each program and about the lessons the SBA learned from previous programs about the application process. We discussed funding amounts, what the funds can be used for and the special priority groups the programs target.
