Venture Out Business Center

"We started Microdome Computers 10 years ago here in the Venture Out Business Center. We chose the VOBC for its location, good resources, and helpful staff. Having the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) right here on premise, along with the Madison Area Chamber of Commerce, was a great asset. We attribute our successful start to the VOBC, its
staff, and the resources that surrounded us there."
