Today’s Guest
I’m excited to welcome to our show Ben Lozano, CEO and Co-Founder of SMBX. I asked Ben to join The RBFN Podcast because we wanted to explore the landscape of innovative funders who are providing capital to traditional small businesses - what I often call Main Street businesses - which is a market that hasn't seen much innovation in recent years. Ben built SMBX to solve this problem and to help traditional small businesses get the capital they need to thrive and grow. We talk about his background, why he built SMBX and how, and what the future of small business funding looks like.
