Whether you're starting your business, expanding your business, or just looking to stay in business, the Small Business Development Centers of Ohio (SBDCs of Ohio) can help with professional guidance by connecting you with research, financing sources, professional resources and training opportunities. The SBDCs of Ohio provide free, professional, in-depth and confidential business consulting and training to pre-venture, start-up, and existing small businesses through its network of 38 centers. Beyond core business needs, counselors throughout the state can provide guidance in specialized areas including international trade, government procurement, technology, and manufacturing process certification.
The SBDC of Ohio program was created in 1985 through a partnership between the U.S. Small Business Administration and the Ohio Department of Development. The program fosters a strong climate for small business growth through a statewide integrated system of small business service, advocacy and awareness, and more than 40 community partnerships. Today, these federal, state, and local partnerships contribute more than $10 million in cash and resources to the support of small business development.
A member of the Ohio SBDC Network, the Middletown Small Business Development Center is devoted to providing a full array of services to existing and start-up businesses through a partnership with Biztech, located in Hamilton. These services include business plan development, marketing and financial assistance, as well as the above mentioned professional and technical referrals.
