DUBOIS — Small-business owners and individuals looking to launch a new business idea in the Tri-County area will benefit from an upcoming Tax Credit Seminar.
It’s slated to be held from 8:30 a.m. until 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, June 20, in Room 209 of the DEF Building at Penn State DuBois.
This program is presented by the North Central PA Regional Planning and Development Commission and KIZ Resources LLC and hosted by the North Central PA LaunchBox.
Those attending will receive information on the Tri-County Keystone Innovation Zone (KIZ) and benefits available to entrepreneurs through the KIZ in Clearfield, Jefferson and Elk counties.
