Record Breaking Year for WCISBDC

2018 was a record breaking year for the Indiana Small Business Development Center (ISBDC) throughout the state for small business impact. The local West Central region was recognized as the highest performing center in the state! Business advisor, Tracie Yelich, was recognized for helping clients invest over a million dollars in rural communities. Regional Director, Courtney Richey-Chipol, was recognized for helping the most businesses launch out of any advisor and named Indiana's State Star. West Central will represent the state of Indiana at the National ASBDC conference in Long Beach California. We are thankful to the small business owners that let us be part of their amazing journey!
