If you have a business idea and believe the Bresnan Business Incubator program can help you realize this dream, the application form is your first step. The application is designed to determine how far along you are in the process of either developing your start-up business or growing your existing small business. The questions are a useful starting point in assessing your business needs and in providing you with the tools necessary to help you succeed.

Your responses will be forwarded to your regional Small Business Development Center (SBDC). Individual interviews will then be conducted by regional SBDC business counselors. Bresnan Business Incubator Matching Grants and Service Credit Grants will be awarded based on SBDC recommendations. The SBDC provides free counseling and very low-cost training to help you further your business goals. Applying for counseling is a simple process. You'll also find excellent resources for both start-up and existing businesses on each of the ten regional SBDC websites.

All of us at the Bresnan Business Incubator, The Montana Department of Commerce and the Small Business Development Centers look forward to learning more about your proposed or existing business venture.
