As part of its continuing effort to focus on Rockland's community businesses, Rockland Economic Development Corp. (REDC) recently hosted a free business assistance workshop at the Atrium. Sponsored by Provident Bank, the event offered local businesses the opportunity to learn more about tax & financial incentives, business financing programs, government contracting, small business loans, access to capital, as well as meet one-on-one with representatives from Rockland County SCORE, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), Westchester/Rockland Revolving Loan Program, Rockland County's Empire Zone Program and the Rockland County Industrial Development Agency (IDA).
Ron Hicks, REDC's president and CEO said, "We feel it's imperative to provide a concentrated effort with our business partners to communicate the various resources available to Rockland's businesses. Our commitment to supporting the County's economic vitality and its diverse business community is a continuing process." Tags:
