Amid the COVID-19 stay at home mandates, StartupSac Office Hours was held on Zoom this month with special guests to help explain the COVID-19 emergency relief resources as they relate to startups and the self-employed. We assembled a panel of experts to give short presentations on relief resources from the SBA, the CARES Act (Payroll Protection Program), and the State of California and we will also have time for your questions.
Special Guests:
- Eric Grabin, Business Development Officer, SAFE Credit Union
- Sunita Maharaj, Financial Advisor, NorCal SBDC Finance Center
- Carrie Ellingwood, Lead Lender Relations Specialist, U.S. SBA
- Ray Loyd, Partner – Assurance Services, Ernst & Young LL
We recorded the session to share more broadly to those who weren’t able to attend. Check out the video below:
Additionally, all of the slides shared by our special guests as well as Eric’s (SAFE CU) Excel spreadsheet are available for download from this Google Drive Folder.
