Watch as rural leaders have an in-depth discussion of our report, Rural America’s Struggle to Access Private Capital, which reveals deep and persistent disparities in how funding flows to rural entrepreneurs.
Despite strong entrepreneurial potential, rural businesses receive less than 1% of all venture capital, even though rural businesses make up 12% of U.S. firms.
This gap isn’t just inequitable, it’s a barrier to innovation and economic opportunity in rural communities across the country.
A panel of rural thought leaders explored:
- Why rural entrepreneurs face systemic barriers to funding
- How the capital gap is impacting rural economies
- What can be done to create a more equitable financial landscape
