Florida has always been a place where opportunity meets ambition. From the bustling streets of Miami to growing tech hubs in Tampa and Orlando, small business owners are at the heart of the state’s success. They build companies, create jobs and strengthen communities. At City National Bank, we serve them every day, and we are proud to stand alongside them.
Welcome to Florida Small Business
A Message from the State Director of the Florida SBDC Network
We believe in the power of personal relationships. We listen, we understand and we help our clients navigate challenges and growth opportunities. When small business owners dream big, we say yes to possibility, whether they are planning for their next stage of growth or continuing to invest in their community.
Florida’s economy reflects this spirit.
More than 3 million new businesses have launched since 2019, supported by strong domestic and international investment. Our communities thrive when small businesses thrive, and that is why we are committed not just to banking but to being the partner that helps entrepreneurs make their vision a reality.
As the state grows and evolves, we remain confident in Florida’s future. Together, we can continue to say yes to possibility and help businesses, families and communities flourish for years to come.
Jorge Gonzalez
Vice Chairman and CEO, City National Bank
