External Funding

The Business Finance Center (BFC) is a technical assistance provider founded with the mission to expand access to capital among small businesses - particularly those that might not otherwise obtain financing.  The center does so through a network of external financing partners, representing the full funding spectrum - to reach those seeking to start new businesses or expand existing enterprises.  In addition to traditional lenders, we have built trusted relationships with SBA 7(a) and 504 lenders, non-profit and micro-lenders, venture capitalists, angel investors, and crowdfunding experts.  The BFC balances the need to make capital available to small businesses with the importance of providing appropriate counseling and technical assistance.
