Small Business Technical Assistance Program
The Small Business Technical Assistance Program seeks to increase traditional small business activity across Wisconsin. This WEDC program provides grants to eligible nonprofits, units of government, educational institutions, community organizations, foundations, or Tribal entities so those organizations can, in turn, provide technical assistance to small businesses. The grant funds can be used for operational costs, training and events, or in-depth programs such as accelerators.
