Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs) are government-funded resources that provide free or low-cost support to entrepreneurs and small business owners. They offer expert guidance on creating business plans, marketing strategies, financial analysis, and navigating regulations. SBDCs aim to help businesses start, grow, and succeed by providing personalized advice, training, and access to resources. They operate across regions, often affiliated with universities or economic development agencies, making expertise and tools accessible to help small businesses thrive and contribute to local economies.
