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:

These services are offered to all communities in both English and Spanish through Business Specialists. This Program is funded in part through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration and the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity.
