CAPITAL ACCESS HUB

The Capital Access Hub is a collaborative effort between The Metropolitan Business League and Bridging Virginia, launched in January 2022. The Hub aims to close the capital access gap for historically marginalized and underinvested small businesses through a combination of early-stage capacity building, technical assistance for capital access, and network growth.

The Capital Access Hub is located in The Michael Wasserman Building at 1717 East Cary St, Richmond, VA.
