Paycheck Program Program (PPP) 2.0/Shuttered Venue Operator Grant Overview for Small Business Owners

The SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans are to provide short-term cash flow to help small businesses cover payroll and other essential operating costs. On December 28, Congress passed new COVID-19 relief legislation that includes a second round of SBA Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) funding for qualifying small businesses. The new round of PPP includes funding for qualifying businesses which have not previously received any PPP funds, and also includes a second round of additional PPP funding for businesses that received PPP funds in 2020. Join Sharon Harvey, Senior Area Manager, Asheville/Western Area, U.S. Small Business Administration and Dr. Chris Slaughter, Business Counselor, Small Business and Technology Development Center for an overview of this new round of PPP funding which includes the Shuttered Venue Grant program. Offered in partnership with Spark Tank, the Small Business Administration, Small Business Center Network, Small Business and Technology Development Center and Western Women’s Business Center.
