Lunch & Learn for Lenders!
|
We hosted a Lunch & Learn at the FAMU SBDC for local lenders interested in participating in the State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI), featuring a presentation from Mason Alford with DEO. We want to ensure our local lenders are well-equipped to participate in the program, which currently has over $120 million available to small businesses. By leveraging these funds, our lenders will be supporting a thriving small business ecosystem, creating jobs, and driving economic prosperity in the region.
