RBxA Business Update: Evolving to Serve You Better

As we continue to strengthen Brooklyn’s small business ecosystem, Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation is proud to share several exciting updates from our Restoration Business Exchange Alliance (RBxA) community.
Over the past quarter, RBxA has made significant strides in supporting localentrepreneurs through technical assistance, capital access, and business development resources. Together, we have hosted building workshops, expanded partnerships with financial institutions, and helped dozens of small business owners stabilize and grow their enterprises in a rapidly changing marketplace.

As part of our ongoing commitment to modernization and operational excellence, the RBxA (Brooklyn Business Center) will be sunsetting its operations as an Entrepreneurship Assistance Center (EAC) at 1368 Fulton Street effective October 31, 2025.

This transition is part of a broader effort to retool, strengthen, and realign our business services infrastructure so that we can continue meeting the evolving needs of our entrepreneurs and small business community for years to come.

While RBxA takes this important step, Restoration remains deeply committed to serving our business community. To ensure seamless continuity of service, business clients will now be supported through our trusted partners:  BOC Network – For business consultation, training, and funding assistance, please contact: (718) 624-9115 | wbc@bocnet.org The Center for Personal Financial Health at Restoration – For personal and financial wellness support, please contact: (718) 636-6900

We are excited to announce a new partnership with BOC Network, which will expand our collective capacity to deliver high-quality business services across Brooklyn.

Together, we will continue empowering entrepreneurs, supporting small business growth, and driving equitable economic development in our community.

We thank you for your continued partnership, trust, and collaboration as we move forward together.

Testimonial It’s been such a big help to get to meet virtually with Restoration staff during the pandemic. There have been so many shifts, with figuring out about loans, not to mention adapting my business to the world as it is and more. The Restoration team has been there every step of the way. It’s been great to have access to someone who is so well informed and cares about the health of my business. Danett Bean
