Indiana Consolidates Entrepreneurial Initiatives
A bill to consolidate several organizations and entrepreneurship efforts into one office led by the lieutenant governor passed in the Indiana General Assembly with unanimous support from both chambers. HB 1332 combines the Young Entrepreneurs Program, the Small Business Development Center and the Small Business Ombudsman into a single entity know as the Office of Small Business and Entrepreneurship. The Office would be responsible for advancing small businesses in the state and operating a network of local, state and federal resources, according to a news release. The bill awaits Gov. Mike Pence’s signature.
