We are pleased to bring the Boynton Beach community a new business development program that offers a variety of business support services to help grow local business.  The Small Business Development Program has been created to assist Boynton Beach residents who desire to start up a small business or accelerate the growth of an existing business. The program is funded through the Boynton Beach CRA and is administered by the TED Center and its Florida Women’s Business Center program.  The Small Business Development Program is a three month program that works in and outside the classroom, providing group training and individual counseling services.  Men & women are welcome.

Businesswomen in Southwest Florida have a powerful ally now with the recent establishment of a local branch of the Florida Women's Business Center in Fort Myers.  It is located in the Southwest Florida Enterprise Center (SWFEC), which is located close to downtown Fort Myers and Interstate 75.  The SWFEC recognized that the FWBC services aligned well with its own and generously donated office space.  Local businesswomen, Deborah Shane is the Business Development Manager for the Ft. Myers branch.  Her role is to provide a combination of small business training, one-on-one counseling and outreach/marketing of the program. 

The Florida Women's Business Center was spotlighted on the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric.  CBS took great strides in getting to know us by coming out to our center and filming our beautiful facility, interviewing our Director Jennifer Brin Kovach and two of our clients Adrianna Martin and Yolanda Goldwire.  This was an extraordinary opportunity for us to share with the nation the needs of the small business owner, how the state of economy directly impacts them and the resources our center has available to help them.
