Are government grants provided for starting a new business?

There are grants for starting a new small business that can help entrepreneurs cover the initial start-up costs of their companies without going into debt. Within the beginning, there can be many costs which can become overwhelming to the entrepreneur who does not have any assistance with funding. The government grants are designed to allow people to make their new small businesses successful, and are tailored to be used for things like paying for advertising, buying new machinery, hiring and training employees, or improving facilities. If you are thinking of starting a small business and have a budget planned, you can begin to look for grants from the national and regional tiers which may be able to assist you.
