About National SBDC Day

Each year during the third Wednesday in March our Montana SBDC participates in celebrating National SBDC Day. National Small Business Development Centers (SBDC) Day recognizes the thousands of SBDCs across the country supporting entrepreneurs in the pursuit of small business ownership.

SBDC Logo MT
The goal of the SBDC is to provide tools and guidance to help small businesses succeed. For an individual that is looking to start a new business or expand their existing business, the SBDC network is the best place to start. The SBDC network supports ten regional centers across the state, focusing on free one-on-one counseling and low cost training in areas such as financial analysis, business planning, strategic planning, loan packaging, financial projections and market research to help small businesses achieve their goals of growth, innovation and success. Funded in part through a Cooperative Agreement with Big Sky Economic Development, the U.S. Small Business Administration, and the Montana Department of Commerce. 

About the Event

Celebrate National SBDC Day with a Special Screening of Edge of the Plains

Entrepreneurs are the backbone of Montana—driven by imagination, resourcefulness, and grit. In honor of National SBDC Day, we’re bringing back Edge of the Plains, the 2021 documentary showcasing the inspiring journeys of entrepreneurs across central and southeast Montana.

This film offers a rare glimpse into the determination it takes to build a thriving business from the ground up. Through setbacks, resilience, and unwavering passion, these entrepreneurs turned ideas into reality, shaping Montana’s economy along the way.

Join us, Wednesday, March 19, 2025 at the Art House Cinema & Pub at 3:00 pm for a special screening of Edge of the Plains documentary with Q&A with the film producers and featured entrepreneurs.
