The federal Project Grant award of $581,778.00 was made by the U.S. Small Business Administration's (SBA) Office of Entrepreneurial Development to the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) on January 1, 2025. The award is funded through the SBA's Small Business Development Centers (SBDC) program (CFDA 59.037), which provides management counseling, training, and technical assistance to small businesses and entrepreneurs nationwide.
Under this award, IEDC will operate a statewide network of SBDC centers across Indiana to deliver a range of services supporting small business growth, expansion, innovation, and overall improvement. These services include one-on-one business advising, training workshops, market research assistance, export support, cybersecurity training, and access to capital guidance. IEDC also plans to collaborate with subrecipients such as Indiana State University, Purdue University, and Ball State University to expand the reach and delivery of these SBDC services throughout the state.
