Original story continues below:
After an initial call on Tuesday, March 26, additional calls have been added. Registrants will receive a link to the call in the confirmation email.
Commerce Director of Business Retention and Expansion Ray Little and SBA Office of Disaster Assistance Public Information Officer Susheel Kumar will both be on calls to provide information and answer questions.
“The Commerce team is always available to help businesses across the state with whatever needs they may have,” said Sean Kouplen, Oklahoma Secretary of Commerce and Workforce Development. “We know that many businesses are suffering right now. Our team wants to help these businesses get the relief they need, as quickly as possible, to be able to remain in business during this difficult time. Ray and Susheel are experts on the loan process and what companies should expect. They will also be available to answer questions live, as well as after the call.”
“We want to be sure Oklahoma companies know what the application entails before they even open the form,” said Little. “It is equally important that business owners understand the eligibility requirements and the terms and conditions of the loan.”
