They discussed legislation that could help startups and small businesses as well as how the pandemic has changed their businesses.

One owner said the Payment Protection Program Congress passed in March allowed the company to bridge the gap after losing revenue due to coronavirus.

Others said it's made customers more willing to use technology.

The entrepreneurs also told Bacon that removing some bureaucratic red tape would allow them to grow their business faster.
