New Resource Hub Supports 50+ Entrepreneurs in Small Business

February 13, 2025

AARP and Public-Private Strategies have launched the Small Business Resource Center for the 50+ to provide guidance for older entrepreneurs navigating the challenges of starting and growing a business. The free platform offers resources on business management, funding and crisis response, recognizing that more than half of U.S. small business owners are over 50. The initiative aims to equip these entrepreneurs with practical tools to adapt and succeed as the economy continues to shift.
