Norcal SBDC Welcomes Three New Affiliate Partners

Norcal SBDC Welcomes Three Affiliate Partners Following RFP 2021-AFF-01

The Northern California SBDC Lead Center (a program of Humboldt State University Sponsored Programs Foundation) requested proposals from entities wishing to join the Northern California SBDC Network as Affiliate Partners. Organizations were invited to submit proposals to join the Network as Strategic Partners or Affiliates, local partners to participate in the delivery of high-quality services to small businesses and new entrepreneurs allowing them to start and grow businesses, create jobs, increase sales, and gain capital and investment.

After an evaluation in accordance with the criteria laid out in RFP 2021-AFF-01, the following organizations were selected:

  • Centro Community Partners
  • Project Equity, a program of Multiplier
  • Hacker Lab, Inc.


The Norcal SBDC Network would like to thank all participants for their interest, effort, and patience with this process. Non-selection at this time does not constitute rejection, and all applications will be held on file should further funding opportunities arise before the next round of RFPs are issued in 2022.
