GREENSBORO, N.C. (WGHP) — Murali Ramaswamy has walked into his Greensboro health care office every morning for the last five years.
From the start, he knew being a small business owner would be tough, and he could use some guidance to keep growing,
“Being an entrepreneur itself, and being a start-up is a big challenge,” Ramaswamy said.
It is a challenge he says is even greater being a minority business owner.
“I’m an immigrant, minority, I call it the 2 or 3 Cs, cultural challenges. Even though I’ve been in the US for over 20 years. I’m native born in India, so there’s also a cultural gap. There’s also a communication or accent gap. Then certainly you hear a lot about color being an issue,” he said.
