PartnerAmerica™

The Mayors' Small Business Initiative
A Partnership between The United States Conference of Mayors and American Management Services, USCM Platinum Member

PartnerAmerica™ is a public-private partnership that was created by The United States Conference of Mayors and American Management Services, Inc. This program helps small and medium-sized businesses in cities across the nation improve profits and sales through management assistance. PartnerAmerica™ is designed to assist mayors in providing the resources and information small businesses need to thrive within their local communities and the global economy.

PartnerAmerica™ is entering its 6th year and the Conference recently signed an unprecedented 20 year extension to the very successful program. PartnerAmerica™ focuses on combining the resources and programs offered by local and federal government agencies, with the management and technical expertise provided by private enterprise. The program initiated the compilation and publication of Best Small Business Practices, assisted mayors across the country in hosting small business roundtables and conferences, and helps local companies enjoy sustained growth through increased profits and sales.

Looking ahead, PartnerAmerica™ will continue its efforts to link mayors and businesses with the necessary resources to foster thriving business communities that are so integral to the economy.
