SUMMARY:Portsmouth EDA Business Investment Grants NOW OPEN!
DESCRIPTION:The Portsmouth Economic Development Authority (EDA) focuses on and supports the City’s growing entrepreneurship and small business community through two Business Investment Grant programs and one Real Property Investment Grant program. \nGrant programs are tailored to help new businesses\, growing businesses\, and established organizations making additional investments in the City of Portsmouth. \nIn an effort to further assist entrepreneurship efforts\, we have partnered with the Hampton Roads Small Business Development Center\, the Carolinas-Virginia Minority Supplier Development Council and Operation HOPE to provide workshops that will guide business owners through the steps of their first\, or updating their current\, business plan\, Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) Information Sessions\, and small business workshops. \nWe have also partnered with the City’s Commissioner of the Revenue’s Office\, Permits and Building Inspections Department\, and Planning and Zoning Department to offer quarterly grant information sessions that will prepare interested business and property owners for each grant application round. \nPlease send your questions regarding the grant programs through our Contact Us Form or by calling us at 757.393.8804. Look for frequent updates on our Facebook page! \nApplications for the 2025 Fiscal Year are open in the grant rounds listed below for the Smart Start Business Development Grant and the Smart Start Business Acceleration Grant. Due to the overwhelming response of the Real Property Investment Grants on Round 1: July 1-31\, 2025\, the Real Property Investment Grant Program is now closed for FY26. Please stay tuned for future funding availability and opportunities. \nRound 3: January 1-31\, 2026\nRound 4: April 1-30\, 2026
