To continue our commitment to helping small businesses, Entergy New Orleans created a hub of resources to connect owners to information, tools and opportunities that could help their business during the COVID-19 pandemic. This week, Entergy New Orleans’ economic development team partnered with the Director of America’s Small Business Development Carmen Sunda— who serves the New Orleans and the River Region—to provide insight and recommendations on how to select the most appropriate program for their small business.

Small business owners are encouraged to watch the webinar posted below to learn more about the various loans available through the U.S. Small Business Administration, how businesses should approach the wide range of loans available, and to get tips on navigating the parameters of the Paycheck Protection Program.
