As the population of South Carolina
and the Rock Hill Area grows, the need to provide management and
technical assistance to small business owners and managers also
grows. The Small Business Development Center was established
in 1978 and operates with funds from university, federal, and state
grants. A consortium of four universities (University of South
Carolina, Clemson University, Winthrop University, and South
Carolina State University) operates the program. A state
director operationally oversees the plans of the consortium.
The Winthrop Regional SBDC
serves a wide geographical area of 15 South Carolina counties and
strives to meet the needs of a diverse community of entrepreneurs.
Associates in Rock Hill, Florence, and Myrtle Beach assist business
owners, agricultural businesses of the Pee Dee, and tourist related
firms strung along the Atlantic coast in Horry and Georgetown
counties.
