Scaling Impact: Streamlining Entrepreneurial Support with a Business Health Assessment

With support from Capital One, we partnered with five business support organizations to pilot a new approach to delivering technical assistance—one that uses diagnostic tools to surface entrepreneurs’ needs and priorities, strengthen coaching relationships, and make high-touch support more scalable. The findings offer timely insights for funders, policymakers, and ecosystem leaders looking to invest in solutions that drive impact, efficiency, and equity in small business support.
