Jointly produced by NVCA and Venture Forward, this page is intended to provide resources for economic development agencies, state representatives, and VC professionals related to the State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI). Now that the U.S. Treasury Department has begun approving states (on a rolling basis) to begin implementing their SSBCI programs, VC fund managers—particularly emerging and underrepresented managers whom this program is intended to serve—can reference which states have been approved, who to contact at the state-level, and how to apply for their state’s program as a source of capital, using the guidance provided below.

Please contact Jonas Murphy for additional questions or to submit a resource. To be notified of upcoming SSBCI-related programming, please sign up for NVCA communications here.
