Through innovative programs, one-on-one mentoring, and adherence to best practices, the OSBDCN has become one of the leading SBDC Networks in the country, outperforming states with populations and funding considerably greater than Oregon’s.

In 2009, OSBDCN provided confidential advice to 6,000 businesses, which created and retained nearly 2,000 jobs and employed more than 24,000 Oregonians. Clearly, these businesses and their communities benefit from this support, guidance, and ongoing coaching.
