New episode of Entrepreneurially Thinking podcast
Joining us today is Minerva Lopez, a small business owner and non-profit Founder. Minerva returned to St. Louis in early 2020, since then she has been deeply involved in identifying, understanding and successfully applying for small business covid relief loans and grants.
In this episode:
Minerva discusses growing up in California and says that she can remember there always being a need for help in business development throughout the Latina community and minority populations, amongst other needs.
Minerva says her passion for community based programs that focus on making underserved communities a better, more resourceful place to live. Minera says that entrepreneurially thinking to her means being an informative tool for people of all walks of life to become aware of information and to create and lead your business.
Minerva talks about her experiences while owning a soccer apparel store on Cherokee Street. A big fan of soccer, Minerva knew in her heart, even before the prospect of a professional soccer team was established, that St. Louis was a soccer city. Upon realizing that there was not a store in St. Louis to purchase soccer apparel, she had to open one of her own.
Minerva tells us what she feels would be more impactful for Latina and minority owned businesses in the area.
Minerva tells us what her future holds in the business world. She says she has left her mark on St. Louis and is ready to take her talents to other underserved areas that also need resources and a person with the knowledge that can rise them up.
