ECONOMIC IMPACT |
||
Each year the BV-SBDC works with hundreds of potential new business owners or current small business owners in the Brazos Valley. Each client has different needs and is in a different stage of development but all of our clients have one goal in common, to make their business as profitable as possible. As a new business is started or an existing business grows, they create an economic impact on the community they serve by hiring new employees and by making capital investment in their businesses. The BV-SBDC attempts to gather the impact our clients have on our local economy as we are directly working with them. Usually this information is captured when a new business is started or an existing business has expanded. For example, in a typical year, the clients we see will start 60 new businesses; have 15 business expansions, create 200 new or retained jobs and spend $5,000,000 in capital investments. The full economic impact of a new small business is not truly realized until the business has had time to grow which creates new jobs and new capital investment. Our clients along, with all clients that are serviced by the State SBDC network, are surveyed two years after we initially work with them to determine their economic impact in the State of Texas. Linked below is the latest economic impact for SBDC clients in the State of Texas for 2002-2003 |
