It's no secret that successful businesses are crucial to a thriving state economy. New York has a variety of programs designed to encourage and support small businesses (for example, the “Taste of NY” program).
Through collaboration and ingenuity, this principle led to the creation of the New York Business Express: a central online hub for entrepreneurs to start and run a business in New York State. This platform can be found at businessexpress.ny.gov.
The New York Business Express website is a one-stop-shop for a variety of resources, including licensing requirements, available government incentives, and a step-by-step Business Wizard that clarifies what new owners need get their ventures up and running. Simplifying this process not only helps small business owners make their dreams a reality but also streamlines processes for State agencies.
Anton Dreslin, Deputy Commissioner for Technology, and Randi Harris, Manager of Information Technology Services, share the story of this crucial program: the initial idea, the challenge of bringing the idea to life, and the bright future ahead for New York Business Express 2.0.
