If your business is located in Linn County, the Linn County Business Development Center provides financial assistance through the Linn County Investment Fund. The purpose of the fund is to overcome the difficulty that local small businesses have in attracting capital to develop a new crop, product, process or service. Financing is available for up to 50% of a project’s cost, on a dollar-for-dollar matching basis. This fund is an interest free loan. A business can receive up to $50,000 based on the creation of one (1) job per $20,000 of funds received. There is a $50 application fee and a 5% administrative fee on funds received.
