Information: To encourage the growth of local small businesses, Tufts Health Plan has developed the

Small Business Accelerator Forum, a collaborative where leaders from relevant

industries can engage with small business owners on how to best leverage the opportunities and overcome the challenges they face in today’s marketplace.

At the first event on May 5, Tufts Health Plan, in collaboration with Eastern Bank, Whittier Street Health Center, the Greater New England Minority Supplier Development Council and El Mundo, will host a panel discussion on understanding health insurance options, obtaining access to capital and identifying programs to help propel Minority-owned Business Enterprises.

The event will also celebrate the accomplishments and development of local businesses in the Dorchester, Mattapan and Roxbury areas and will include catered hors d’oeuvres, giveaways, an iPad raffle. For more information and to register, visit TuftsHealthPlan.com/forum.
