Bio / 2026

Christopher Myers.

Christopher Myers is the founder and CEO of B:Side Advisors. He has spent 15 years inside small business as a founder, a lender, and an advisor. As CEO of B:Side Capital since 2020, he leads an organization that has approved more than 5,500 small business loans and helped create 45,300 jobs across Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah.

He did not start B:Side Advisors because AI was trendy. He started it because after years of watching small businesses struggle to compete, he saw what AI could do, and he knew most Main Street businesses would never get there without help.
