Presented by Connecticut Small Business Development Center (CTSBDC) and the U.S. Small Business Administration Connecticut District Office (SBA), the Business Lending Expos bring lenders and small business owners together to turn funding needs into productive conversations.

Whether you’re preparing to launch, grow, or invest in your business, a Business Lending Expo can help you explore your financing options and connect directly with potential lenders. Find an event near you and register when enrollment opens to start building the relationships that can move your business forward.
