The STEP Grant program is designed to help Louisiana small businesses generate new export revenue and create or retain jobs resulting from sales to foreign markets.  Under this program, eligible small businesses can be reimbursed for expenses associated with participation in virtual and in-person trade shows and trade missions, as well as other activities and expenses as determined by SBA. The program offers a 90% reimbursement rate on eligible expenses, with a maximum benefit per company of $10,000. Learn more and apply.
