Abstract

While numerous citations in the literature have lauded the benefits that could be derived from the establishment of cooperative relationships between SCORE/ACE and SBI, actual cooperation has at best been sporadic. This paper overviews the benefits SBI team members, small business clients, and the SBA derive from the SBI program; examines some of the reasons SCORE/ACE-SBI cooperation has not materialized; provides a model approach or framework to overcome the previously identified reasons/roadblocks to SCORE/ACE-SBI cooperation; and discusses the reasons such a cooperative effort should be encouraged.
