TOPEKA – Small businesses and entrepreneurs have many questions – whether they have been in business for 30 years or 30 months. The Kansas Small Business Development Center (KSBDC) is part of a national group of more than 1000 teams that provide invaluable solutions, resources, and advice to small businesses and entrepreneurs. National, state, and local funding sources allow the KSBDC teams to provide small businesses and entrepreneurs comprehensive, in-depth, long-term assistance through confidential one-on-one business management consulting, educational programs, and training at low or no cost. The KSBDC focuses on ensuring small businesses and entrepreneurs in Kansas achieve their goals from start to finish and in all the growth and challenges in between.
