PRESS RELEASE

NOVEMBER 5, 2025 // For Immediate Release

Mona is proud to announce that it has been recognized as an Inc. Power Partners Award winner. The prestigious list honors B2B organizations that have proven track records supporting entrepreneurs and helping startups grow. 

Companies on the Inc. Power Partner list received top marks from clients for being instrumental in helping leadership navigate the dynamic world of startups. These B2B partners support entrepreneurs across various facets of the business, including hiring, compliance, infrastructure development, cloud migration, fundraising, and more, allowing founders to focus on their core missions. 

“The entrepreneurial journey and community are core to Inc.’s mission, and it’s a true honor to celebrate this year’s Inc. Power Partners – the companies dedicated to helping small businesses and entrepreneurs,” says Bonny Ghosh, editorial director at Inc. “Whether they’re coordinating complex marketing campaigns or reliably supporting the day-to-day infrastructure of growing companies, these honorees aren’t simply B2B providers – they are true partners in helping businesses grow and succeed.”  

“The foundation and heart of Mona is made up of the small businesses we serve,” said Anny Dow, co-founder of Mona. “This award recognizes our deep commitment to helping entrepreneurs by coaching them on capital options and helping them secure the funding they need to grow and thrive.”

Mona’s small business users have noted a combination of easy-to-use technology and personalized support in finding best-fitting loan and grant options, successfully securing them, and determining their strategic use of funds to grow and scale. 

Regina Trillo, founder of Nemi Snacks, shared the impact of Mona on her business’s growth: “Mona has been a game-changer for my business. Their expertise in the space of access to capital and loans is unmatched. Mona helped us navigate funding options and even guided me through a funding application to secure a loan, which allowed me to produce the necessary inventory to meet demand, fill an entire truck, and reduce my costs by 12%. This support enabled me to say YES to retailers and continue sharing a piece of Mexico with American consumers through Nemi Snacks.”

Another Mona entrepreneur – Cera Muchiri, founder of Econdunia – added: “Mona does amazing work supporting businesses like mine that have a hard time securing funding, helping us to grow our businesses at an affordable cost of capital. Their online tool is extremely easy to use and well-designed compared to other funding marketplaces, and it is the only one I know of that focuses on truly affordable loan options at good rates. They also are unique in how they provide one-on-one support, helping from the beginning of the process to the end. The loan my company, Ecodunia, received was helpful in expanding our brand’s digital marketing and B2B sales pipeline through trade shows, and it would not have happened without Mona.”
