Small Business Development Center Better Equipped to Help U.P. Small Businesses

Thanks to CARES ACT funding, small businesses across the Upper Peninsula will now be able to take advantage of expanded support services offered through Michigan’s Small Business Development Center.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, small businesses are eligible for free business consulting, training and market research.

New services include three additional business consultants for the increased calls for one on one support and new partnerships with service providers who can help small businesses navigate through COVID-19 waters.

State Director of the Michigan Small Business Development Center JD Collins, said “We were able to add consulting staff to meet increased demands and extend our service offerings into key areas that we know will expedite small business recovery.”

The expanded services offered through Michigan’s Small Business Development Center will be available through March.
