SBDC is committed to making sure everyone feels welcome, valued, and respected.

For over four decades, we've proudly helped all who walked in our doors, and we always will. We acknowledge barriers that have hindered business owners from some NH communities from fully engaging with the opportunities available to them, and we are doing more to reach them.
Through strategic partnerships across the Granite State, we're extending our reach to bring business advising and educational programs to all communities, fostering connections and empowering entrepreneurs to thrive. Our Community Outreach Director is on board to ensure that this is happening!
How do I get help with my business?
An SBDC advisor can help you, whether you are starting a business or already own a business. They can help you develop a business plan, think through your cash flow, and figure out plans for funding your business, bringing in more customers, and paying yourself. We are dedicated to providing you and everyone looking for help with confidential, individualized business advising and educational programs. We want you to feel welcomed and supported as you navigate your business journey.

Building partnerships across the state to reach more current and future business owners

Community Outreach Director
SBDC offers professional services that many businesses in communities throughout New Hampshire thought they couldn’t afford, but we offer them free of charge. The best part about the community outreach program is that we are looking forward to becoming one global village, businesswise. I’m excited to be part of this initiative because of the great impact we are having not only with individual business owners but also with families. We want to restore humanity in the business world so everyone’s voice is heard.
SBDC has nurtured partnerships with community and non-profit leaders who share our vision of reaching more small businesses in New Hampshire with business advising and other programs. Facilitated by our Community Outreach Director, Loick Muyuka, these partners are laying the groundwork for countless meaningful connections with businesses. We envision a future where every entrepreneur in New Hampshire has access to the resources and guidance they need for their business to thrive.
