jobs” said Christi Wolf, Fishers Chamber President & CEO.

informed of the changing landscape facing their market. The SBDC provides
the tools these entrepreneurs need to stay informed and on top of their
business.
Nationally the SBDC network provides management and technical assistance to
more than 1.3 million small business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs each

SBDCs for free face-to-face business consulting and at-cost training on
writing business plans, accessing capital, marketing, regulatory compliance,
international trade and more.
