Advent GX, the Innovation Underground team and the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station Clean Energy Incubator (TEES-CEI) have partnered with a team of advisors throughout our community to assemble resources and provide advisory services to area businesses that are struggling in the wake of COVID-19 response. All will be provided free of charge. We need to do this research for our own businesses and want to be sure we offer what we learn to our friends and neighbors.
Our intent and hope is that we can provide you with a single resource page for all the information you might need – and only the information you might need – in order to leverage State and Federal resources for small businesses. We also have a team of exceptional Business Students who are volunteering their time to talk with you, review your circumstances, and help you make the best decisions for you, your employees, and your business. We are praying for our community, our fellow small business owners, and your families. Peace be with you!
