Small business owners in the US are facing numerous challenges. Starting a business has become easier, but owners must now contend with emerging risks alongside traditional obstacles. These include cyber and legal risks, in addition to securing financing and building a customer base.

Economic volatility is also a concern for many entrepreneurs, who must protect both their business and personal finances. A survey of small business owners across the country provides insight into the experiences of these entrepreneurs. The survey reveals a complex picture of entrepreneurship, with growing awareness of risk.
