The Business Centre Nipissing Parry Sound is getting an extra $50,000 in provincial funding.
Vic Fedeli, MPP for Nipissing announced the funding is on top of their base allocation of $159,500 for this year.
“This additional funding will allow our local business centre to expand services such as business consultations, seminars, workshops, mentorship and training, as well as micro-grants through the Summer Company and Starter Company Plus programs,” says Fedeli.
Jennifer Nickerson, manager of the business centre says they will be able to accept more entrepreneurs into their programs and enhance the training and mentorship the centre provides.
“These programs have proven to provide valuable training, resources, connections, and mentorship to participants and help to ensure the small business owners are set up for success,” Nickerson says. “Participants represent a wide variety of industries, but all have a common desire to launch or grow a viable business that contributes to our local communities.”
Applications are still open for the Summer Company 2024 program.
