Small Business Development Center
The Illinois Small Business Development Center (SBDC) assists entrepreneurs in all phases of their business growth. We are dedicated to helping new entrepreneurs realize their dream of business ownership and existing businesses access networks and resources to grow their business and establish long-term economic impact.
All entrepreneurs face significant barriers. IHCC’s Small Business Development Center enhances a small business’ competitiveness and ability to succeed. The following services are provided free of charge:
The Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (IHCC) has developed a specialized program for corporate supplier diversity and procurement officials looking to identify qualified and vetted minority-owned firms. IHCC understands the challenges supplier diversity and procurement officials face in finding minority suppliers that are ready to do business with major corporations. IHCC's process serves to alleviate these challneges and presents an opportunity for corporations to make an investment in a results-driven support system for minority owned firms.
Experienced IHCC staff will work to familiarize themselves with your company's supplier diversity goals and procurement requirements. IHCC staff will then work to identify only those firms with the proper qualifications and will provide technical assistance to ensure they have all of the necessary certifications and requirements to do business with your company.
To learn more about how you can take advantage of this program to expand your diverse supplier base, please call our office at 312-425-9500 or email us at info@ihccbusiness.net.
