City of Providence Business Liaisons

Navigating your way through the complexities of City government when you are trying to run a business at the same time can be time consuming and maybe even a little daunting. Whether you are just getting started or have been in business for years, we are here to help you through it.

What We Do

There are several ways we can help you grow your business in Providence:

• Financing & Incentives:

  We offer a variety of financial assistance programs to help entrepreneurs grow their businesses in Providence. Your City of Providence Business Liaison can explain the different programs available. If those aren't a good fit for your business, a Business Liaison can help connect you to other potential resources.

• Technical Assistance:

  Whether you are looking for the perfect site in Providence to relocate your business or need help getting started, your business liaison can help connect you with the resources you need.

• Connections:

  Sometimes you know what you need, but you just don't know who to ask. Your Business Liaison can help connect you to the right person or agency to answer your questions or resolve your issue.

• Intermediary:

  Getting what seems like conflicting advice from different City departments? Your Business Liaison can help you understand what the different departments are looking for, and if necessary, talk with them to understand how to resolve the issue.

What We Don't Do

As much as we want to help, there are some things we just don't have any control over, such as tax rates, code enforcement and other building/zoning violations. What we can do is help connect you to the right person to assist you with your concerns.
