Free Business Growth Program for CT Businesses
Connecticut small businesses looking to grow can take advantage of a free, eight-session Business Growth Accelerator Program offered by the Connecticut Small Business Development Center (CTSBDC).
The online program is designed for Connecticut businesses that have been operating for at least 12 months and are ready to address challenges and develop a practical plan for sustainable growth.
Topics include:
Identifying ideal customers
Tracking financial performance and managing cash flow
Accessing capital
Making operational decisions for growth
Using technology to support the business
Participants will also complete a Capstone Project—a personalized, ready-to-implement roadmap for scaling their business.
The program begins October 27, 2026, and sessions take place online twice a week through November 19. There is no fee to participate, but advance registration is required.
This is a useful resource for Fairfield entrepreneurs and business owners looking for guidance as they plan for their next stage of growth.
