THE WI UNION PROJECT: SMALL BUSINESS SURVEY 2026

We are not a niche market. We are one unified force. Corporations and investors see the Caribbean diaspora as dozens of small, disconnected markets, Jamaican here, Haitian there, Trinidadian somewhere else. That fragmentation costs us contracts, funding, and political power. The Wi Union Project Small Business Survey (SBS) is the first effort to count us together. One dataset. One voice. One undeniable number that walks into every boardroom in America and says: this is what we're worth. The SBS will also collect data on innovation, technology, intellectual property, and financing from the U.S.-based companies of all sizes.
