Startup founders know a lot about risk and business concerns. Aside from the risks of even starting their entrepreneurial journey, running a business can be just as, if not more risky. On top of that is the concern for your staff, organizational growth, investors, and more.

Fortunately, many of these risks are predictable. Unfortunately, startup founders are constantly battling unforeseen and external business concerns that can hurt even the most secure of companies. Specifically, digital and social climate risks are affecting startups and their founders more than ever.

Recently, Embroker conducted a survey of 500 business owners and startup founders to find out what they were most worried about when it comes to starting, running, and growing their businesses. In our Big Risks for Small Businesses Report, we break down the 2021 business concerns and challenges facing small businesses and founders.
