Small Business Week is here, and we’re gearing up to spread the local love. We’ve partnered with some of Chattanooga’s businesses to celebrate the folks who make up the backbone of our local economy.

This week, you can expect Q+A’s with local entrepreneurs that shine a light on what it’s like being a part of the Scenic City’s small business community.

We have something special for our readers, too. We’ve created an interactive map of can’t-miss deals and fun events being offered exclusively during Small Business Week — Sunday, May 4 through Saturday, May 10.

From enjoying 10% off your drink at Rêve Coffee and Books to attending a networking event at Albatross Golf Sim + Bar, there will be plenty of ways to support Chattanooga’s small businesses.
