If you are looking for guidance for starting a business in Indiana or growing an existing one, you are in the right spot. For more than 10 years, Business Ownership Initiative of Indiana has been helping central Indiana residents start or grow their business. Very small businesses and some larger ones have found expert advice, mentors, programs and workshops, assistance with developing their road map or business plan and even financial support here at BOI. Our services and programs are a low- or no-cost, depending on household income.

 We are the only not-for-profit organization in central Indiana devoted to helping people to start or grow a business. Business Ownership Initiative houses the Central Indiana Women’s Business Center program, one of about 100 WBC organizations across the country. We serve everyone needing our assistance in Marion, Hamilton, Hancock, Hendricks, Johnson, Brown, Putnam, Boone and Shelby counties.
