The UTSA Small Business Development Center opened a new office in New Braunfels to serve entrepreneurs and small business owners in New Braunfels, Schertz and Seguin areas.

The office will be managed by Sharon Miller, an experienced small business development advisor.

“We’ve been providing SBDC advising in those communities for the past 15 years through a circuit-riding arrangement, but now we will have a full-time presence in the communities,” said Morrison Woods, director of the UTSA Small Business Development Center. Read More

“This is a natural progression for us, and a great way to home grow local businesses in these counties,” he added. The office is funded through the economic development corporations of the cities New Braunfels, Schertz and Seguin through an agreement with the Center for Entrepreneurship, a non-profit corporation.

“Already, we are getting great response from all three communities,” said Miller. “I’ve been busy meeting with clients and lenders, and we’re off to a good start.” Miller and the SBDC also plan to begin offering low-cost or free workshops and training programs soon.
