CROWN POINT – The Northwest Indiana Small Business Development Corp. and the Starke County Economic Development Foundation have formed a partnership, said Charles Weaver, executive director of the Starke County foundation.
“We have seen several models of how to do things over the last several years, but the one that we currently all seem to be in agreement on is the concept of regionalism, and not just for small business, but for all business,” said Weaver. “Working together with your neighbors only makes sense and when one company is successful it is likely that all other areas within that region will also benefit.”
He said the affiliation with the SBDC will allow the organization to assist entrepreneurs as well as existing businesses.
