This Thursday, StartupSac is re-purposing our monthly in-person Office Hours to a Zoom meetup where we will discuss COVID-19 Crisis Relief for Startups and the Self-Employed. There’s a lot of information out there about emergency loans, the Paycheck Protection Program and unemployment, but not so much about how startups and the self-employed fit into eligibility. We’re inviting several experts to join us and hope to provide some clear direction for our community. It’s this Thursday, April 9 at 10 am. RSVP here.
