IMPACCT Brooklyn champions small businesses and small business owners. If you have an idea for a business, our Economic Development Department is a one-stop-shop for anyone who wants to start their own business, find a retail space, or develop a business plan. We provide a range of services from one-on-one business counseling and pro bono legal services to small business workshops, and neighborhood business ‘tours’ of vacant retail spaces.
IMPACCT Brooklyn collaborated with the Small Business Legal Relief Alliance (SBLRA) spearheaded by the law firm Stroock, Stroock & Lavan and BOCNet, a New York-based community development financial institution. Together we help to provide legal counsel, support, technical assistance and much needed access to capital for these businesses to survive during and after the pandemic.
Yes, we have available storefront spaces.
Plain and simple, thriving businesses help our local communities survive.. We work with local entrepreneurs and small business owners to ensure they have the right legal and financial services. We also help launch new businesses and retain small businesses through mediating conflicts or assisting with lease negotiations.
