Lendio Denver Partners with B:Side Fund on Small Business Learning Series

Lendio Denver is thrilled to announce its partnership with B:Side Fund, a mission-based nonprofit small business lender to provide free, educational resources to small business owners through its sponsorship of the B:Side University Small Business Learning Series. The collaboration between Lendio Denver and B:Side Fund provides local business owners with an ongoing central source of in-depth, topical information from operations and financial management to marketing to effectively manage their businesses.

The B:Side University Small Business Learning Series helps entrepreneurs develop a well-rounded skill set necessary for the challenges and opportunities they may encounter in managing their businesses. These free, monthly webinars are sponsored by Lendio Denver and presented by both B:Side Fund and other partners with extensive expertise in their field.

“B:Side is committed to helping small businesses access responsible and affordable capital. Setting them up for success with free education, trainings, and resources is a crucial part of the process. We want to support the dreams of entrepreneurs, but often we find that early-stage business owners need additional guidance before they are ready to apply for funding. We believe that B:Side University can help bridge that gap,” expresses Marie Peters, B:Side Fund’s Lending Director.

As part of the partnership, Lendio Denver will play a pivotal role in helping B:Side Fund increase awareness of this series to a broader business community, enabling more business owners to benefit from the sessions, as well as continue offering them for free. Lendio Denver connects local small business owners with more than 75 curated lenders to secure the financing solution that best fits the business’ needs. Lendio Denver is thrilled to partner with B:Side Fund to deliver even more financial education, resources and solutions to small local businesses. “We know that running a small business is challenging, which is why we are so grateful to be able to empower local business owners with the knowledge and skills to be successful in their entrepreneurial endeavors,” says President of Lendio Denver, Bill Airy.”
