At The 224 EcoSpace, we’re committed to supporting small businesses, entrepreneurs, and creatives by providing space, resources, and opportunities to grow. That’s why we’re launching The 224 Connect Series, a regular networking and business development event designed to equip small business owners with the skills, connections, and support they need to thrive.

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, yet so many lack access to the tools, funding, and networks that fuel long-term success. The 224 is here to change that by creating a space where business owners can learn, collaborate, and build together.

Workshops & Panels – Led by experts in business growth, marketing, funding & more

Real Business Conversations – Budgeting, taxes, legal essentials, and sustainability

Networking That Matters – Connect with like-minded entrepreneurs and potential partners

Resource Sharing – Access tools, mentorship, and business opportunities

We have a proven track record of impactful programming, such as our Artists of Color Accelerate (AOCA) Fellowship, which fosters economic sustainability for artists of color and strengthens cultural networks. And now we are expanding our efforts to empower small businesses through The 224 Connect Series.
