Last update: 10 hours ago

Food Economy: More than 25,000 Boston residents lost SNAP benefits between June 2025 and August 2026, a drop that could also cut revenue for local grocers, farms and food retailers. Corporate Outlook: Boston Scientific is cutting jobs and lowering its 2026 outlook as sales weaken, with China pricing and heart-device demand weighing on its prospects. Small Business: Mayor Michelle Wu proposed zoning changes to make it easier to open and run restaurants in Boston. Manufacturing: The Healey-Driscoll administration awarded $10.5 million in commercialization grants at the state’s manufacturing industry event. Biotech: A new report highlights the scale of Massachusetts’ biotech economy, while Needham Bank is expanding its small-business lending.
