Second Stage Companies
The Global Chamber® is proud to announce a new initiative to help Second Stage companies in metro areas across the United States grow their businesses. As defined by the Edward Lowe Foundation, Second Stage companies are established companies with 10-99 employees and $1 million to $50 million in annual revenue that are looking to scale up.
Global Chamber® is committed to grow and support America's Small Business Community - the true backbone of the United States economy.
Through this new initiative, the Global Chamber® will provide critical resources that these companies need as they embark on their next stage of growth, including:
- Access to banks and lenders with capital through Global Chamber's network of investors and financial lenders

- Identifying grants for Second Stage Companies to apply for to increase access to capital
- Executive coaching and peer mentoring programs
- Talent recruitment assistance
- Supply chain optimization support
- Expanded market access both domestically and globally
- Facilities and site selection guidance
The Global Chamber® has a track record of helping companies succeed, which is why we are committed to leveraging our platforms and networks to propel second stage companies forward. Our goal is to see more businesses in metro regions thrive, create jobs, and boost local economies.
If you lead a second stage company and are looking to take it to the next level, visit www.globalchamber.org to learn more and apply to the Global Chamber® Second Stage Company Initiative today. With the right support, your company can expand its impact both in and beyond your metro region.
Global Chamber® has discussed 2nd Stage Company Initiatives as early as 2019/2020.
