Throughout all of our incubators and all across Central Florida, more than 100 clients, all of whom are small businesses, are working to make a difference in their community and their industry.
Of course, that’s just a tiny fraction of the number of small businesses in our region. They are the lifeblood of our community, creating jobs and growing our economy.
That’s why this week, the UCF Business Incubation Program was proud to support Osceola County Government as they read into the official record their support of Small Businesses.
We’re thankful for the opportunity to work with so many entrepreneurs and are thankful to all our partners in local government for giving them the support they need to grow and scale.
Here is the proclamation:
Whereas: WHEREAS, small businesses are the foundation of the American economy and are responsible for creating the majority of new jobs, driving innovation, and enhancing economic competitiveness; and
