What people say
“We started at NBIC in a 1,000 square foot office with eight fulltime employees. Upon graduation, we grew to 25 employees and moved to a 5,000 square-foot office. NBIC’s consultation services, management assistance, and professional advisement were all things Zycron needed to increase our chance for success. NBIC helped me learn how to plan, organize, and strategize. They taught me the value of being more strategic than tactical.” - Darrell Freeman, Zycron
What people say
“When we entered the NBIC program, we had a business idea and were technically competent to provide security services but lacked the knowledge on how to take that technical expertise and grow it into a business. Even though we had many prior business experiences, we did not know how to run a business. With our NBIC coaching, business owner events and the accountability that comes from being in the program we learned what we didn’t know and how to turn an idea into a business.” - Ken Thomas, CEO, Archangel Protective Services
What people say
“The first four years of the company were learning years – years in which I learned about employment rules and responsibilities, accounting basics, and ownership demands of running a new company. Most of my fellow NBIC business owners were very helpful and supportive – we learned a lot from one another and asked each other numerous questions – it was a great community of knowledge and sharing that knowledge.” - Kathy Ware, K.S. Ware & Associates
