Enterprise Florida

Florida has incredible momentum when it comes to job creation. Since Gov. Scott took office in 2011, more than 1.3 million private-sector jobs have been created. Small businesses play a big role in that growth, and Enterprise Florida Inc. (EFI) is committed to helping our small business leaders find the resources they need to be successful.

EFI facilitates capital programs that can provide financial assistance, including the State Small Business Credit Initiative. We also partner with groups like the Florida SBDC to provide international trade and development marketing programs that help small businesses grow and find new markets around the world.
