Comcast RISE, our multi-year, multi-faceted initiative launched to help strengthen small businesses owned by people of color in Colorado, recently expanded to include all women-owned small businesses in Comcast’s service area.
Through this program, business owners can apply for:
- Marketing services from Effectv, the advertising sales division of Comcast Cable, and its creative agency. Benefits include a TV media campaign, including creative production, advertising, and marketing consultations.
- A technology makeover includes state-of-the-art equipment and technology upgrades from Comcast Business and internet, voice and cybersecurity services for up to 12 months. (Taxes and other fees may still apply for technology makeover services)
“The COVID-19 pandemic changed how we work and those within our community work. And with these changes, Comcast RISE has helped our team to pivot. The technology makeover package provided our team with computers that allow us to work remotely and internet services for 12 months, that provide our customers with the means for a mobile working environment. “ –Kimberly Ponce, Owner, Kimberly’s Event Center.
Since the program’s inception, Comcast announced nearly 90 Colorado small businesses as Comcast RISE recipients. Included is Kimberly’s Event Center, a woman-owned business in Northern Colorado.
