Linda Richards, the CEO of Artisan Global, was recently selected for the 10,000 Small Businesses program, created by Goldman Sachs. 

This $500 million initiative will unlock the growth and job-creation potential of 10,000 small businesses across the United States through greater access to business education, mentors, networks, and financial capital. 

The program includes:

• Practical business and management curriculum
• Access to capital
• Critical support and consulting services

The selection process was very competitive and the skills that Linda is learning are key to helping us grow Artisan Global. We're excited about the years ahead and the opportunity to create more jobs here in Southern California.
