Many owners of small businesses
have specific legal, financial and insurance questions
that go unanswered, and not just at start-up or
time of expansion. Day-to-day operations of a
small to medium-sized business present many challenges.
This is why the Small Business Development Center
at UNF and the City of Jacksonville have joined
together to sponsor the Small
Business Resource Network. The Resource Network
helps businesses succeed by connecting them with
interested, experienced service providers and
government agencies. Network members have demonstrated
expertise and a commitment to helping you handle
business situations cost effectively.
