Small Business Week in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania begins today and state agencies are offering support through tools and resources.
Governor Josh Shapiro’s officials in the Department of Community and Economic Development plan to build on the successes of the current Keystone Communities Program by creating the Main Street Matters Program.
Shapiro’s budget proposal includes $25 million for this program to support commercial corridors and invest in revitalization. Resources available to Pennsylvania small businesses now through the DCED and a network of partnerships include Small Business Development Centers, the PA office of International Business Development, the Ben Franklin Technology Partners, and the PA Business One Stop Shop.
The DCED continues their small business tour across the state with a stop Tuesday in Franklin, Venango County. Visit the DCED website and social media for more information about Small Business Week.
