Small Business Initiative

We help small businesses thrive

One way Tufts Health Plan proactively engages with the business community is by hosting small business forums. At these forums, business owners and nonprofit leaders learn ways to grow their organizations. These forums are designed to engage local business leaders on topics such as:

• capital for business growth
• legal resources
• health insurance options

We also collaborate with organizations in the region focused on small business initiatives, including:

• The Boston Chamber Small Biz Mentor Exchange
• The Hispanic American Institute
• The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights and Economic Justice BizGrow Workshop

Small Business Accelerator Forums

We’ve held Small Business Accelerator Forums in both Roxbury and East Boston, Massachusetts, and in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. These well-attended events provide actionable information, and great learning opportunities.

Supplier Inclusion Program

Another way we help small businesses thrive is through our supplier inclusion program. We are committed to working with qualified diverse suppliers.
