Larimer SBDC gets $20K grant from Blue Ocean

FORT COLLINS — The Larimer Small Business Development Center in Fort Collins has been awarded a $20,000 grant from the Blue Ocean Foundation.

“The funding will support the SBDC’s work with local small business owners, allowing the center to help more businesses in Larimer County,” according to an SBDC news release. “This is the largest non-governmental grant the center has received to date.”

The Larimer SBDC has been hosted and sponsored by Front Range Community College for 32 years.

The number of clients we’re assisting has almost doubled in the last five years, so this award from BOF enables us help more entrepreneurs,” SBDC director Mike O’Connell said in a prepared statement.
