Biz-M-Power is a crowdfunding matching grant program that offers small businesses in Massachusetts financial assistance with their acquisition, expansion, improvement or capital lease of a facility; purchase or capital lease of equipment; or with meeting other capital needs for the business. 

Biz-M-Power recently increased the funds awarded to businesses with a 2:1 match, meaning for every dollar a business raises through crowdfunding, it could receive $2 in grant funds: Crowd funding $1 + Matching Grants $2 = $3 Total.



Here are just a few of the businesses that have taken advantage of these changes:



North Tabor Farm of Chilmark exceeded its crowdfunding goal, receiving a combined total of $44,373.67. While most of the farm is sustained by solar energy, it is tied to the grid. The owners plan to install a new generator and commercial freezer to protect against extreme weather events.




Georgie’s Wine Shop & Bar of Boston exceeded its crowdfunding goal, receiving a total of $67,675. The owners are expanding the shop’s footprint, adding shelving and a tasting room, allowing them to increase product offerings. (P.S.: The owners named the business after their adorable English bulldog!)

Fitness Fusion of Easthampton exceeded its crowdfunding goal, receiving a total of $38,243.89. Owner Brian Lepine plans to upgrade the gym’s equipment, allowing him to hire more personal trainers.


Las Palmas Dominican Kitchen in Boston’s Roslindale neighborhood met its crowdfunding goal, receiving a total of $60,000. Owner Seila Green plans to use the funds to purchase kitchen equipment that will allow the business to take on larger contract deals and support its community's growing needs.
