About Small Business BC

Who We Are

Created in 1993 as a federal/provincial partnership and then transformed into a not-for-profit Society in 2002, Small Business BC is British Columbia's key resource centre for business information and services.

Small Business BC involves the business community directly in its operations, which enables the development of private sector partnerships to complement and expand future services.

Western Economic Diversification Canada and the Ministry of Small Business and Revenue are founding partners of Small Business BC and together are partners in bringing services, government programs and timely business information to local BC communities. Small Business BC is member of the Canada Business network. Canada Business is a national point of service and the first place entrepreneurs go for government information, advice and support to help build their business. Canada Business offers business people access to a wide range of federal, provincial and territorial government services across Canada.

The innovative approach of Small Business BC has led to national and international awards and helped solidify its reputation as an exceptional business resource.
