PartnerTulsa Presents 2022 State of Entrepreneurship Report
PartnerTulsa is pleased to present the 2022 State of Entrepreneurship Report, a summary of the progress being made in making Tulsa a better city for its entrepreneurs and small business owners. In 2021-2022, one of PartnerTulsa’s key goals was to understand the current business resource landscape and our place in it. To this end, over the past year, our team worked with the National League of Cities and the Kauffman Foundation, and received technical assistance from SourceLink, a Kansas City-based ecosystem development non-profit.
Locally, PartnerTulsa engaged with Black Tech Street, the Coretz Family Foundation, the Global District, and Tulsa Development Authority to conduct outreach to business owners, residents, resource organizations, and other partners through interviews, surveys, focus groups, and public meetings. The objective of this effort was to better understand the current entrepreneurial landscape, including both strengths and opportunities for improvement, culminating in this State of Entrepreneurship Report.
