About

The Ozarks Small Business Incubator aims to be a community of support for entrepreneurs and business owners at all stages in their business development. Our team of professionals, mentors, successful entrepreneurs and board members surround your emerging business with skills, experience and networks to help you start and accelerate towards success. We support entrepreneurs with an idea to those who want to take an existing business to the next level.

Our clients operate social service businesses, breweries, software companies, salons, manufacturing plants, medical services, IT companies, professional services and more. Their businesses are large and small, new and old. We have helped them build strong companies through mentoring, business trainings, affordable office space and capital.

Microloans from $5,000 to $50,000 are available through the OzSBI Microloan Fund. The maximum term of the loan is 10 years. Loans are available to provide up to 80% of the total project cost. All loans are made at the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate and are locked in when the loan is approved.
