GO Topeka is implementing a survey to help us better assess the current state, needs and opportunities for our Entrepreneurial Ecosystem. 

A strong entrepreneurial ecosystem is an important component of a strong local economy for multiple reasons. While this is often measured in terms of jobs creation and tax revenues generated, a strong entrepreneurial ecosystem is also vital for bringing new ideas and business innovations to a community and for the contributions that it makes to a region’s community identity that make it a vibrant place for residents and for attracting new businesses. To help us best support our ecosystem, we encourage small businesses, entrepreneurs and startups to participate in GO Topeka’s Ecosystem Survey

The Small Business Council is a leadership group of area entrepreneurs dedicated to work with the support of GO Topeka to promote small business in Shawnee County and equip those businesses for success.

Discover incentives that can help you find success at any stage of your emerging business. Whether you’re a startup with boundless new ideas or an established small business trying your best to put great ideas into motion, there are resources available to help you grow.

GO Topeka hosts many classes, training seminars and events throughout the year that are aimed at small business owners and entrepreneurs like FastTrac New Venture, the Wheelhouse Incubator,  small business boot camps, and more.

If you’re  looking for business to business partnerships to help expand your business check out our small business directories. Consumers can also utilize these directories to find the perfect fit for their next purchase.

The Small Business Council in partnership with the Topeka Chamber of Commerce help advocate issues of interest to all small businesses at the local, state and national level.
