About

In every community, small businesses serve the needs of residents, industry, government, and the nonprofit sector. They are embedded in the fabric of Oregon’s economy. From restaurants to retail to consultants, small businesses connect people, ideas, and commerce. To help support these emerging and existing businesses, Oregon has Small Business Development Centers strategically located in urban and rural communities, including the Rogue Valley SBDC in Jackson County. Our Centers assist small businesses throughout Oregon with advising, classes, and access to the resources they need to be successful. Each Center is backed by our statewide network of support, helping small businesses access the right assistance wherever they are in Oregon.
