SBDC Day is a national proclamation of the success of America’s Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs) on the success of the nation’s dreamers, innovators and doers – America’s small businesses. SBDC Day will unite the nearly 1,000 SBDC centers across the country by sharing, in real time, the success stories and notable impacts SBDCs collectively have on the small business community.
Aspiring and emerging small business owners are invited to learn about free help available through the U.S. Small Business Administration’s (SBA) largest funded program, Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs), during national SBDC Day, 8:30 a.m. – 10:30 a.m., March 20 at Southwest Tennessee Community College’s Whitehaven Center, 1234 Finley Road.
This SBDC Day will have a special focus on women business owners. The latest U.S. Census Survey of Business Owners showed Memphis leads the nation’s largest cities in female-owned business growth.
