Celebrate Entrepreneurs on Independence Day

For the 9th year in a row, our friends at Emergent Research and MBO Partners published “The State of Independence in America,” a comprehensive look into the country’s independent workforce – a group of 41 million people who work as consultants, freelancers, contractors, temporary, or on-call workers. The findings of this year’s study show that, despite a strong job market and the lowest unemployment in decades, independent work remains not only increasingly viable as a choice for working-age Americans, but is steadily becoming a more profitable, sophisticated, and satisfying career path. Read more about the report and its conclusions on our latest blog post.
