It?s fuel. It?s drive. It?s you and your business. It?s Chase and LivingSocial. And it?s a heady sum of a $250,000 individual grant that only 12 recipients will be awarded by a panel of hand selected small business experts this year.
Having just kicked off on May 7th this year, Mission: Small Business?is the brainchild between Chase and LivingSocial, a program designed to provide 12 small businesses funding across the United States in the form of a grant worth $250,000. And with only two days left until the due date for submitting an application, I thought I?d sit down for a quick Q&A session with Beverly Kennedy, general manager for Ink from Chase, to discuss the grant, it?s application process, the esteemed panelists picking the grant recipients, and what Mission: Small Business means to her.
