Business | Capital | Community

For more than three decades, The Enterprise Center has promoted racial and economic equity by supporting the growth of diverse small businesses and partnering with West Philadelphia communities on revitalization strategies. As a trusted mediator, we bring together businesses, communities, partners, and resource providers with the shared goal of equal opportunity and prosperity for all.

We invest in people and projects in the belief that everyone should have the opportunity to own and build wealth for themselves, their families, and their communities.

As a 501c(3), our mission is to cultivate and invest in minority entrepreneurs to inspire working together for economic growth in communities. We focus our work in the Mid-Atlantic region, with offices in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
