The University of California, Merced SBDC Regional Network continued and expanded on the Merced Business Outreach Project, first conducted in 2018 and again in 2019, to assess the needs and challenges of our local business community in 2023. This annual survey was suspended in 2020, 2021, and 2022 due to the Pandemic. The main objective of the survey project was to assess the current needs, issues, and challenges of the local business community, as directly reported by them.
These 3 downloadable reports are free to the public. We hope you will find the information insightful and helpful:
