Small Business Equity Program

PACE values the contributions that small businesses make to our community. The diverse inventory, personalized services, unique experiences, and creative innovations that Boulder County’s small businesses provide, help make our community special. Small businesses also provide financial livelihoods for many community members and add to the diversity of Boulder County. Small businesses account for the largest portion of Boulder County’s commercial inventory. In the City of Boulder, 88% of employers have fewer than 20 employees.

As Boulder County bounces back from the pandemic, PACE Small Business Equity Program can speed up your economic recovery efforts.

PACE has created three special offerings to help Boulder County’s small businesses rebuild even better than before. Through these grant offerings, your business could operate more efficiently, save money, contribute to sustainability goals, and become more resilient. We know how busy you are —PACE is here to help make your sustainability goals a reality.
