Business Quick Guide: Pittsburgh Region’s Business Development Resource

A quick reference guide of business-related not-for-profit assistance agencies that provide services to area businesses and entrepreneurs. This navigational resource guide is designed to help businesses and entrepreneurs identify not-forprofit organizations whose missions include assistance to existing and prospective businesses. The organizations listed offer services to help businesses launch, prosper, and grow. The organizations are arranged alphabetically with colorcoded references relating to specific services offered. The intended use of the Business Quick Guide is to provide a quick reference of agencies that offer the most services with the least number of calls required from the inquiring individual. The Business Quick Guide – distributed via SMC Business Councilsʼ Dynamic Business December 2008 issue – is also available with the most up-to-date information online at www.pittsburghregion.org in partnership with the Pittsburgh Regional Alliance(PRA).
