How We Fight Back: Keeping Small Businesses in NYC

​New York City is a hub of entrepreneurship in multiple sectors, from food and fashion, to tech and retail. While our neighborhoods and communities have thrived because of diverse and unique small businesses in all five boroughs, these independent businesses are getting squeezed by policies and practices that increasingly favor corporate establishments. Will New York City eventually become a city of conglomerates and chains? 

​Join Small Business Majority and NYC's Mercantile Mayhem at Welcome to Chinatown for a powerful panel discussion with small business owners and advocates who are fighting to build a fairer, more sustainable small business ecosystem in New York City.

Stand with us to protect the character, culture and community that New York’s small businesses bring to life.

Panelists:
- Vic Lee, co-founder and executive director of Welcome to Chinatown
- Jason Scherr, owner of Think Coffee and founder of Unfair Cafes
- Lola Star, founder of Save Coney Island
