关于基金会

sam基金会的重点是:

  • Research, publications, content development, and 编程 in connection with entrepreneurship
  • 培训, 教育, and support services for small businesses in Michigan particularly those belonging to marginalized and economically challenged communities
  • In depth analysis of the entrepreneurial environment in Michigan via the 密歇根创业记分卡

密歇根创业记分卡

19年前,当计分卡第一次构想出来的时候, 密歇根州正处于长期经济放缓之中. The 玛雅吧官网 Association of Michigan (SBAM) set an ambitious goal to start the long and difficult climb of becoming a “Top Ten” state for entrepreneurs. 但是要达到这个目标, we had to understand how Michigan performed against other states in a variety of areas.

当时, SBAM had no ready reference with which to know how well its entrepreneurial economy was doing; no comprehensive data reference to determine progress. 于是,我们开始设计并发布年度进度. The resultant Score Card is now recognized nationally as one of the most complete assessments of a state’s ‘state of small business and entrepreneurship’.
