*Last updated 5/21/20*

We know that the small business community is facing many challenges due to COVID-19. However, the resilience, strength, and empathy that has been shown in the past few weeks has been inspiring. Even in the face of hardship, the small business community continues to amaze us. Here at LinkedIn, we are committed to supporting you during this time. Explore the resources below to help you navigate the many changes that are happening: 

  1. Unlocked Learning courses for SMBs: Learning is a big part of adapting to change. We recognize that not all small businesses have the time to invest into learning at this moment but for those that do, LinkedIn Learning has put together a SMB learning playlist curated for small businesses. From how to manage stress to building an online website -- we hope these topics will help you minimize the disruptions your business may experience.
  2. Host virtual events on LinkedIn: Have an upcoming event you need to conduct remotely? You can now host virtual events from your Page via LinkedIn Events.
  3. Live interviews & the latest news: Check out the latest edition of Big Trends in Small Biz by Jordyn Dahl, LinkedIn’s Small Business News Editor, to stay connected to new resources and live content such as AMAs with Mark Cuban and Barbara Corcoran.
  4. Motivating content & community support: Our LinkedIn for Small Business page is sharing resources and motivational tips daily for the community. We will also periodically host live shows to share out all our learnings, tune into our latest one here.
  5. Keeping members updated on all things COVID-19: See what LinkedIn is doing to keep members safe, informed, and connected on our resource hub.
  6. #StandforSmall Partnership: We've joined AMEX and other 40 leading companies to support small businesses. The #StandForSmall coalition brings together relevant benefits & resources from leading brands into one centralized digital platform. Get access to relevant offers, information, tools and services to support you during this time on the #StandforSmall resource hub.

With all that’s going on, it can be hard to keep track of the different resources and information.
