Special Programs
Small Business Resource Network (SBRN)The Small Business Resource Network (SBRN) is a resource for small business owners. Our members include companies that serve small business - and experienced private-sector professionals who specialize in small business assistance.
SBRN is a statewide organization. In Southwest Florida, we are sponsored by Florida Gulf Coast University's Small Business Development Center. Our members have applied for their membership and qualified based on criteria applicable to one of our categories:
- Legal
- Insurance
- Banking and Commercial Lending
- Accounting
- Non-profit and Government Agencies
- Business Consulting
Because we have "credentialed" our members, we stand on the premise that a referral to any of our members will result in a good outcome. This serves both our members and our community.
To learn how to qualify for membership, to submit your membership application, or to find a credentialed business that can help you - visit our website at www.sbrn.org. For questions or further information, please contact our SW Florida Coordinator, Lorna Kibbey at lkibbey@fgcu.edu or at 239-745-3700.
