Small businesses are the bedrock of our local economy. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Catalyst Miami was one of three organizations to receive a grant from the City of Miami to support small businesses that had suffered economic losses. We began providing technical assistance to help businesses get back on their feet, and we will continue offering this service beyond the pandemic.

Does your business need support? Contact Catalyst Miami at 786-527-2580

After the business owner contacts us, we will complete a questionnaire to determine initial eligibility for any of the financial relief programs for small businesses, and to determine the areas in which they need help.
