The U.S. Small Business Administration Mississippi District Office (SBA) invites you to Mississippi Gulf Coast - Meet the Lenders, a Small Business Borrower - Lender Match-Making Event. This event will provide small business owners and entrepreneurs the opportunity to meet with Banks, Microlenders, Alternative Lenders, and SBA to discuss the availability of SBA loans.

A one-stop forum for business owners and entrepreneurs to:

  • Pitch financing needs to top small business lenders in one-on-one meetings
  • Learn what lenders look for in a winning loan proposal
  • Understand the loan application process  

 Come prepared with multiple copies of your business plan for distribution. SBA has a “Build a Business Plan” online tool that guides small business owners through creating a basic, downloadable business plan. Another great resource is the Mississippi Resource Partners Network. To locate your nearest counselor for assistance in preparing your business plan, click https://www.sba.gov/local-assistance.
