Small Business Development Center Celebrates 25 Years

The Idaho Small Business Development Center (ISBDC) will celebrate 25 years of serving Idaho small businesses with a luncheon and small business awards ceremony on February 1st. Lt. Governor Brad Little will speak. Six idaho businesses that used the help of their local SBDC to take their business to the next level will be honored.

Small Business Development Centers are located at colleges and universities around the nation. The six Idaho centers are located at Boise State University in Boise, North Idaho College in Post Falls, Lewis-Clark State College in Lewiston, College of Southern Idaho in Twin Falls, Idaho State University in Pocatello and at ISU's Idaho Falls campus.

Through the years the ISBDC has been instrumental in helping hundreds of businesses throughout Idaho. Some have gone on to become well-established chains, such as Smoky Mountain Pizza. Many have used the expert advice they received to better serve their customers and to create new jobs.

If you need help with your small business, whether you are thinking of starting a business or need help to grow an existing business, give your local SBDC a call. The counseling is free.

Update - On February 22, 2011 Inc magazine named the Idaho Small Business Development Center in Boise as one of the top 10 SBDCs in the country, http://www.inc.com/articles/201102/americas-10-most-helpful-sbdcs.html  Way to go!
