Natural Capitalism Solutions (NCS) received a $30,000 grant to launch Solutions @ the Speed of Business, a unique and affordable interactive tool that provides the resources small businesses need to implement sustainability, save money, and increase profitability. The tool provides dynamic educational resources and tactical implementation resources such as pre-written signage and action plans.

NCS has partnered with non-profit organizations and communities across the country to distribute this innovative online tool. NCS staff provides education and training to these partners, helping them to integrate Solutions @ the Speed of Business into their small-business outreach efforts, while also providing training on key sustainability topics that are important for reaching the small business audience. Small businesses receive access to relevant local resources while also benefitting from the ongoing education and implementation support the tool provides.
