Entrepreneurship
Americans filed more applications to start a business last year than in any year on record. This year is on pace to beat it. Here is who is starting, where, and what the numbers quietly reveal.
Small Business
Four out of five small businesses in America have no employees. Most are modest, a few are remarkable, and together they form one of the largest and least understood forces in the economy.
AI in Business
In less than a year, the share of American businesses using artificial intelligence jumped by more than a third. The surprise is who is keeping pace: the very smallest firms.
