On behalf of Princeton SCORE and its volunteers, welcome to our web site!

Who We Are

Princeton SCORE is a local NJ chapter of the national nonprofit association known as SCORE (www.SCORE.org), and a resource partner of the Small Business Association (www.SBA.gov). SCORE’s 13,000 volunteers serve as "Counselors to America's Small Business" and are dedicated to the education of entrepreneurs and the formation, growth and success of the nation's small businesses, one client at a time.

Our volunteers are real-world professionals, both active and retired, with time-tested knowledge. They volunteer thousands of hours to help small businesses start-up and succeed. Our counselors are experts in such areas as accounting, finance, human resources, numerous technologies, international trade, import/export, law (including business formation), operations, production, retail, wholesale, manufacturing, sales, marketing, management, business plan preparation, and many other disciplines.

What We Do

SCORE provides free and confidential business counseling, coaching, and mentoring, tailored to meet your small business needs and personal objectives. SCORE also offers many seminars and workshops for start-up entrepreneurs and established small business owners. Our partners, sponsors, and supporters make it possible for us to offer our services at little or no cost to you. Through a local SCORE counselor, you can also learn of SCORE’s nationwide online counseling program providing access to over 1,100 e-mail mentors across the country.

Our Princeton chapter is comprised of 40+ dedicated and talented volunteers who provide free advice, guidance, and counseling to entrepreneurs across Middlesex and Mercer counties of New Jersey. Our counselors are ready to provide you the benefit of their expertise in a single counseling session or work with you in accordance with your schedule to develop your business plan until it is "finance ready".
