Small Business Express: Who Is Getting State $$$

The state’s new Small Business Express program is a stimulus initiative designed to help companies with 100 employees or less. Grants can range from $10,000 to $100,000 and they must be matched dollar-for-dollar by the recipient.

The program, which also includes loans, has $100 million to spend. I’ve got a column coming Monday on the businesses that have won grants through the program.

In the meantime, the chart below shows firms that have won matching grants or have borrowed state funds through the revolving loan fund or the job creation incentive program.
