Existing law creates the Office of Small Business Advocate within the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, also known as GO-Biz, to be led by the Small Business Advocate to advocate the causes of small business and to provide small businesses with the information they need to survive in the marketplace. Existing law requires the office to post on its internet website information to assist an individual to start a nonprofit corporation and to assist nonprofit corporations to achieve compliance with the state's statutory and regulatory requirements.
This bill would additionally require the office to post information on its internet website to assist an individual on starting a small business in the state.
