The Peoria Chamber of Commerce was proud to be a part of the Ribbon Cutting for the Small Business Development Center. The Peoria City Council approved a partnership with the Arizona Small Business Development Center (AZSBDC) (part of the Maricopa County Community College System).
The AZSBDC provides a number of valuable services to businesses, including
onsite high quality, one-on-one counseling, facilitating capital formation, one-on-one counseling for business owners, networking opportunities, educational workshops, virtual counseling and resource assistance and training to preserve and create small business jobs and revenue.

This is a wonderful resource for not only Peoria Chamber members but all businesses located in Peoria. The best part is there is no cost for the services they offer.
