1 Million Cups – SB Supporting New Businesses!

1 Million Cups (1MC) communities across the nation aim to present an inclusive and supportive front door to their local entrepreneurial ecosystem by connecting aspiring entrepreneurs to the resources they need to start or grow their businesses. 1 Million Cups (1MC) was created by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation in 2012 and is a free, national program that first and foremost educates, but also engages and connects local entrepreneurs.

The program fosters a culture of support and inclusivity, welcoming entrepreneurs to be open and honest about their businesses and challenges. In the process, a local community of entrepreneurs can share experiences and identify ways to support one another.
