About Ontario Small Business Centres
Our centres provide entrepreneurs with a full range of support services needed to start and successfully grow their small business. Each of our 54 locations provides one-stop access to Expert Business Advisors, programs, services and learning opportunities for small business owners specific to their region.
In November 2021, we incorporated as a non profit association called the Small Business Centres of Ontario Inc. An exciting opportunity for our centres to collaborate, partner and to be best in class in supporting small businesses. Our association’s goals are to support the growth and professional development of our centres business advisors, to advocate on behalf of our small business centres and to seek funding opportunities to support our network.

Our Mission:
Supporting Small Business Centres’ business owners to reach their maximum potential, which in turn increases the net worth of the business, creates jobs and builds a thriving local business community.
