In 2024 the Economic Growth Business Incubator (EGBI) earned the award Grow with Google – High impact Partner from the search engine Google. Grow with Google is an initiative that offers free digital skills and tools to individuals, nonprofits, and small businesses.
EGBI got this award by integrating Google’s resources into their work. They’ve helped hundreds of entrepreneurs gain critical digital skills, such as setting up websites, creating digital marketing campaigns, and managing their businesses using cloud-based tools.
“This recognition highlights our role in bridging the digital divide for small business owners who face challenges in accessing technology or digital resources. We are super proud of it, and we will continue to work on our partnership with Google to remain a High Impact Partner on a yearly basis. These tools are very powerful for small business owners, and we want to deliver them to them within our community,” stated Jose Lopez, director of programs at the local accelerator.
