Driving economic development and business success in Johnson County and the southside of Indianapolis.
This Thursday: Federal Business Finance Update
Aspire is partnering with the Franklin Chamber to present an important update on federal relief funding efforts. Hosted by our colleagues at the US Chamber of Commerce, this discussion will clarify the various relief programs already enacted and provide first-hand knowledge on Congress’s next moves. Video and dial-in instructions will be sent to registered attendees. The webinar is this Thursday at 11 a.m. and open to all businesses at no cost.

Local Emergency Business Loans
A recording of our recent webinar on the Indy Chamber’s emergency loan program is  now available online . A Rapid Response Loan is available to all small businesses in the region regardless of membership. The underwriting and funding period averages less than two weeks, and you can roll this loan into a future SBA disaster loan. If you need an emergency loan to keep your business open and retain employees, and your existing banking relationship is not able to help,  listen to the webinar  or visit  www.Response.IndyChamber.com/Loans.
Information Overload? ISBDC Offers Concise Guidance
As a small business owner, you might be overwhelmed with how to sift through the information and what to do next. We recommend starting at the  Indiana Small Business Development Center , and to especially check out their  downloadable resource guide . It helps explain the difference between the federal programs, who’s eligible, and what you as a business owner should do to strengthen your business resiliency. You can also contact Aspire at 317.537.0037 or Info@AspireJohnsonCounty.com .
