You are a Small Business, statistically speaking of course. This is a good thing!

Did you know that $360.9 million in applications had been approved for funding under a program designed to encourage new lending to help small businesses create jobs? The funds are part of $1.5 billion allocated for the program under the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010.

The Treasury Department announced applications have been approved for 11 states and the District of Columbia. The breakdown: Alabama, $31.3 million; Florida, $97.7 million; Idaho, Iowa, Louisiana, Mississippi, and the District of Columbia, $13.2 million each; Ohio, $55.1 million; Oregon, $16.5 million; Tennessee, $29.7 million; Texas, $46.6 million, and Virginia, $18 million.

The average size of a sign company in North America is 6.5 employees, so this type of program is particularly important to the sign industry.

With the passing of the 2010 ADA Standard for Accessible Design (SAD), now is the time to take advantage of the programs that are available, so that you can be part of this amazing recovery that we are experiencing.

Manufacturing ADA Compliant Signage using NovAcryl Photopolymer is an efficient, high quality and low cost way to take part in the recovering commercial building industry where these signs are needed.

If you already manufacture ADA signs, Nova can help you become more efficient, understand codes and regulations, increase your capacity and help reduce cost.
