New Grants for Small Business – Forum

Yesterday I attended a forum to discuss proposed new grants to help small business. As part of its $12 million commitment, the competitive grants program will provide between $5,000 and $15,000 to small businesses to help meet the set-up costs of family friendly working arrangements. The forum was lively with lot of debate about what would truly provide value and good ROI for small business. I expect to hear back later in the year and will be sure to let you know now to apply and also how to get help with your application.
