Initiate Small Business Training Platform

The Initiate resource portal is a free small business tool that covers topics such as money, marketing, management, and COVID-19 resiliency resources by using a variety of learning methods including videos, templates, and guides. To best position our Michigan place-based business owners to access this tool, the MEDC is partnering with community and economic development organizations, financial institutions, and other small business support organizations to receive training on the Initiate Platform and then work one on one with businesses at the local level.

The deadline to apply is Tuesday, January 4th.  Register here.
