Starting April 14, 2010
Since the fall of 2008, the economy has struggled. Small businesses have faced many challenges during this period, one of those being the lack of capital. That is why the Western Pennsylvania Small Business Administration (SBA) is hosting our first Borrower/Lender Matchmaking event.
This event is being created to start the process of offering a variety of lending options to possibly make matches and create success for small business owners.
A flyer detailing the event schedule can be downloaded for your convenience, and to help us publicize the event. We trust you will make your clients award of this unique lending opportunity. Should you have any questions please contact Ms. Janet Heyl at 412-395-6560 ext. 103 during business hours. Together we can help small businesses start, grow and succeed. |

In it’s April 12 issue, TIME Magazine’s Small Business Section points out, “One of the biggest casualties of the recession may be the health of America’s 27 million business owners. Aging and wounded by the crisis, more than 50% of business owners in the U.S. say they want out in the next ten years. They wish: only 1 % of them will successfully sell their companies each year”.
SCORE of Central Pensylvania will address the critical aspects of business transition in a workshop entitled: “BUSINESS TRANSITION: PLANNING TO RETIRE’ SELL OR CLOSE YOUR BUSINESS”.
The workshop will be held at the State College Presbyterian Church, Room 10-Downstairs, 132 Beaver Avenue, State College from 9am-noon. To register or to learn more, go to www.scorecpa.org or call SCORE at 814 234 9415.
