Small Business Development Centers Sponsored by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) in partnership with state and local governments, the educational community and the private sector to provide business management and technical assistance, training, and research to small business owners and managers to prove profitability and stimulate growth.
The
Mississippi Small Business Development Center Network
provides the entrepreneur with education and training opportunities which cover a wide range of business topics. Research, both basic and applied, is available, giving the small business person more relevant data from which to draw upon for making decisions.
The SBDC also acts as a clearing house by referring clients to other existing business programs, such as those sponsored by the U.S. Small Business Administration, the Chamber of Commerce and many education institutions and private organizations. The concept of the SBDC is implemented through the assistance and cooperation of SBA. Nine (9) basic service centers throughout Mississippi are available to assist small business firms.
A Small Business Development Center (SBDC) can offer, at no cost to you, the following services:
