bklvlup entrepreneurship collective small business survey
Welcome to the Brooklyn Level Up Entrepreneurship Collective.   The first step towards providing you with the resources and services you need most is to ask you what you need.  We know entrepreneurship journeys are full of highs and lows.  It takes support and community to build and grow.  Tell us where you are on your journey and what issues and concerns you have so we can bring you answers.  The data we collect will help us find out what small businesses in our area need to remain in their neighborhoods as well as develop programming and organize merchants around these solutions.

Only the business owner(s) or a manager/supervisor should respond to this survey.

**No personal or business information or other identifying information will be shared without your explicit written consent. The data will be used for research and organizing purposes only.**
