Founded in 2004 by the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, San Francisco Small Business Week celebrates the entrepreneurs driving our city's economy and culture. This week-long event offers workshops, networking opportunities and activities to help local businesses connect and grow. The San Francisco Public Library is proud to contribute with events focused on empowering entrepreneurs through workshops, panels and community-building activities. This year’s theme, Rising Together, emphasizes the power of collaboration over competition. By fostering supportive relationships, small businesses can turn challenges into opportunities, strengthening their resilience and shaping San Francisco’s dynamic future.
Small Business Week is a partnership with the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, SF LGBT Center, Glen Park Merchants Association, San Francisco Disability Business Alliance and the San Francisco Office of Small Business.
