Our Partners



We are grateful for the support of our partners who help us provide comprehensive assistance to small businesses in California. Their financial, volunteer and in-kind contributions have been crucial to fostering economic growth and promoting entrepreneurship. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of California’s small business owners.

Federal & State Funders



Our work would not be possible without the help of federal and state funders, including the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) and the California Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (GoBiz). Their financial support allows us to provide expert guidance and resources to small businesses at no cost to our clients.

Host Organizations



We also partner with host institutions, such as colleges and universities, who provide the physical space and infrastructure for our centers. Their support allows us to have a presence in communities across California and reach more small business owners.

Resource Partners



We are also grateful for the support of resource partners who provide in-kind contributions, volunteer efforts, and other forms of support. Their contributions help us provide comprehensive assistance to small businesses and make a meaningful difference in the lives of California’s small business owners.
