UW and Wyoming SBDC Network to Host SBDC Day March 15

The Wyoming Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Network will celebrate the seventh annual SBDC Day Wednesday, March 15, and will celebrate throughout March by launching its very own podcast.

The first episode of the Wyoming SBDC Network podcast is now available and features Jill Kline, state director for the Wyoming SBDC Network. The podcast is available on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/show/09zeKNeXBBc1gLX0RTru50.

A special SBDC Day celebration episode will be released March 15, and it will feature an interview with client Victoria Parker, founder of the Teton Lunch Counter, and Audie Cunningham, her Wyoming SBDC Network adviser.

This podcast is geared toward Wyoming entrepreneurs and those who support entrepreneurs either professionally as part of chambers of commerce, economic development groups, Main Street groups or banks, or as consumers and community supporters. 

The Wyoming SBDC Network will produce podcast episodes at least once a month and will introduce listeners to the wide variety of services available through the Wyoming SBDC Network; will air conversations with staff and leadership; and will feature interviews with successful entrepreneurs and members of the University of Wyoming's Business Resource Network. 

During March, the Wyoming SBDC Network also will be sharing success stories, anecdotes and statistics from its annual reports, as well as highlighting available programs and services for small-business owners.

SBDC Day unites the nearly 1,000 SBDCs across the country and the hundreds of thousands of clients they serve by sharing, in real time, the success stories and notable impacts the SBDCs collectively have on the small-business community at large.

The Wyoming SBDC Network offers business expertise to help Wyoming residents think about, launch, grow, reinvent or exit their business. The Wyoming SBDC Network is hosted by UW with state funds from the Wyoming Business Council and funded, in part, through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration.
