Technical Assistance

Small Business Development Center 
The Northwest Indiana Small Business Development Center looks to impact the region’s businesses through workshops, no-cost one-on-one consulting, and special events. The NWI SBDC is a resource for both existing businesses and entrepreneurs looking to launch a business. The staff offers advice to help businesses grow and to help start-ups take off from the ground level. A local representative, Ron Gifford, is based in the office of the Starke County Economic Development Foundation, in Knox, and PCED can assist you in soliciting help from the SBDC.

Workforce Development
In partnership with numerous partners, we strive to provide the training needed to ensure that our local workforce is ready for the challenges of tomorrow.

In Pulaski County, we understand that the success of your business is a contributing factor to the success of our people and county. Our Economic Development team works tirelessly to provide the right-fit assistance, incentives, or both to bring new business to town and to benefit those who operate in our borders. Please contact the Pulaski County Economic Development executive director to learn more about any incentives or forms of assistance.
