Start Your Indiana Business the Right Way: Registrations & Requirements

Online Zoom Webinar 

Tuesday, January 27th   

12:00 - 1:00 pm ET (11:00 am - 12:00 pm CT)

$10

Starting a business in Indiana comes with specific legal, state, and federal requirements—and missing even one step can slow your launch or create costly problems down the road.

This practical, hands-on webinar gives you the exact roadmap you need to set up your business the right way from day one.

Led by experts from the Indiana Small Business Development Center (SBDC), this session breaks down each essential action new entrepreneurs must take—choosing a legal structure, completing INBiz registrations, navigating licensing, understanding federal requirements, and knowing when to bring in professional help. If you’re preparing to launch—or you want to be sure you’ve completed everything correctly—this workshop gives you clarity, confidence, and a clear checklist you can put to work immediately.

You’ll learn how to:

• Choose the right business entity structure for your goals

• Complete Indiana registrations through INBiz and the Department of Revenue

• Understand federal requirements, including EIN and industry-specific regulations

• Identify professional advisors you may need along the way

• Avoid the early mistakes that derail new Indiana business owners

You’ll also receive a resource checklist to guide your next steps and learn how SCORE’s free, confidential mentoring can support you beyond the webinar.
