“There is a whole host of small business services for those looking to survive, to keep the lights on, to provide employment for people in their community,” said attorney Kenneth Ebie.

New and established Black businesses in New York felt that they had something of a new lifeline when NYC Department of Small Business Services Commissioner Jonnel Doris announced the appointment of Ebie as the inaugural executive director and chief development officer of Black Entrepreneurs NYC (BE NYC).
