LSU to lead small business development center network

LSU has been designated as the new host organization for the Louisiana Small Business Development Center network, which provides training and technical support to small businesses and entrepreneurs.

The network, which consists of 10 regional offices across the state, is funded by Louisiana Economic Development and the U.S. Small Business Administration.

In its role as the host organization, LSU will help to manage the development center’s approximately $4.4 million annual program budget, which includes in-kind value gained from the participating universities that house regional center offices. It also will coordinate operations of the 10 regional offices from the network’s new statewide headquarters at LSU Innovation Park in Baton Rouge.

“As Louisiana’s flagship university, LSU’s resources and expertise are meant to serve the entire state,” said Andrew Maas, LSU Innovation & Ecosystem Development director. “It’s an honor for us to lend our support to strengthen the network with our colleagues at regional SBDC offices across the state. When we help small business owners and entrepreneurs succeed, Louisiana wins.”

The last day to apply for the program is Friday, and the courses will begin March 7. Classes will be held in New Orleans and Baton Rouge.
