Arizonas Small Business Development Center Network is an innovative
partnership between the states ten community college districts and the
U.S. Small Business Administration. The network is the largest and most
accessible source of assistance to Arizona businesses with fewer than
200 employees. One-on-one confidential counseling is at the heart of
SBDC work. Counselors use their real-life business ownership and
management experience to give clients advice that is relevant and
practical. Programs and seminars often complement the counseling.
Training content, while developed within the overall mission of the
SBDC, is customized and tailored to meet the diverse needs of business
owners in metropolitan and non-urban areas of the state.

The Arizona Center for Innovation (AzCI) is a specialized business
incubator, designed to meet the needs of developing technology
companies. While focusing on, but not limited to, core technologies
developed at the University of Arizona, the Center promotes the growth
of start-up and emerging companies in Southern Arizona. AzCI's
Interventionist Model ensures that companies receive practical, hands-on
assistance early in the innovation process - beginning in the research
phase and continuing through product development to commercialization.
This structured approach helps companies bridge the many gaps between
discovery and commercialization, while dramatically increasing the
likelihood of success. AzCI focuses on companies involved in Southern
Arizona's six technology industry clusters: optics/photonics,
biotechnology and life sciences, information technology, aerospace,
environmental technologies, and advanced composite materials.
