HAGÅTÑA, GUAM - The Guam Chamber of Commerce, through its Small Business Focus & Development Committee, will host a Small Business Seminar on Thursday, April 23, 2026, from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m., at the Guam Chamber of Commerce Office. As part of the Chamber's ongoing commitment to supporting the local business community, this seminar will feature the Guam Economic Development Authority (GEDA).
GEDA’s Business Development and Small Business teams will highlight startup programs, loan and financing options, and advisory services designed to help entrepreneurs launch and expand their operations. The session will also cover business recovery support, including resources that help existing businesses regain competitiveness, secure working capital, and navigate relief or recovery initiatives following disruptions. Participants will gain a clearer understanding of where to go for capital, counseling, and ongoing support so they can better access the tools needed to sustain and grow their businesses on Guam.
The Chamber continues to prioritize opportunities that connect its members and the broader business community with critical tools for success. This seminar is designed to equip entrepreneurs, startup founders, and small business owners with direct access to government-backed programs and financing resources that support both business development and resilience. Through this collaborative effort, GEDA representatives will guide attendees through eligibility requirements and recovery support options available to businesses across the island.
"Supporting the growth of small businesses is at the heart of what the Guam Chamber does. Partnering with GEDA gives our members and the broader business community a direct line to critical startup resources and recovery programs that can make a real difference. We encourage anyone with an interest in starting or strengthening their business to attend," said Catherine Castro, President of the Guam Chamber.
