Are you an entrepreneur or owner of a small business? Could you use some practical advice on developing new sales or expanding into new markets?

The South-West Texas Border Small Business Development Center Network is now providing critical support for small businesses through the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010. The purpose of the funding is to support job creation and retention within the small business community through individualized attention.

A special emphasis within the 79-county area covered by this SBDC Network will be new market expansion for women-owned businesses, energy efficiency through energy audits of small businesses, linking small businesses to international markets.

Specialized outreach to small businesses in Central, West, South and Gulf Coast Texas will take place through business forums, as well as through the regular programming of your local Small Business Development Center. Contact your local Small Business Development Center for more information. A list of center locations appears here: About Us.
