About Us

The Great Plains TMC is an initiative through the U.S. Small Business Administration’s Regional Innovation Clusters (RIC) program, and is hosted by the K-State Technology Development Institute. These clusters exist to help small businesses thrive through economic development as well as provide resources to attract, create, and grow businesses throughout the region.

We serve individuals and businesses in the state of Kansas and the nine western counties in Missouri from the Kansas City Metropolitan Area. We look to create solutions to address these challenges and create a competitive advantage for the region. We have partnered up with a wide range of economic development entities and businesses across the Great Plains region. These partnerships will increase awareness, connect to resources, and collaborate across the Great Plains to further assist with growing entrepreneurs.
