Beginning July 1, 2025, the College of Southern Nevada runs the Nevada Grow Program to help in‑state small businesses grow. The Division places a lead counselor and a GIS specialist at the College. It works with local colleges, Small Business Development Centers, chambers, and Clark County for data and support. The program targets ready‑to‑expand sectors and offers training, mentoring, nontraditional marketing, and GIS market data. It aims to enroll at least 30 Clark County firms each year. To join, a business must be based and operating in Nevada for 2+ years, earn $35,000–$700,000 a year, and have a written business plan.
Beginning July 1, 2025, the state provides $1.2 million one time to the College of Southern Nevada to run Nevada Grow. The money can fund GIS training trips to Washoe County, counselor and faculty stipends, software, marketing, interns, field trips, and stakeholder grants. Each year, $100,000 goes to the University of Nevada Cooperative Extension in Clark County for counseling, GIS training, and data cleanup. Each year, $30,000 goes to each partner chamber—the Urban Chamber of Commerce of Las Vegas, Las Vegas Latin Chamber of Commerce, Henderson Chamber of Commerce, African Chamber of Commerce and Tourism, and NV AAPI Chamber of Commerce—to hire a part‑time marketer for outreach.
The law sets firm deadlines for the $1.2 million: no new commitments after June 30, 2027. Any money left cannot be spent after September 17, 2027 and must be returned to the State General Fund by that date. Any gifts, grants, or donations not committed before July 1, 2025 must be moved to a State General Fund account run by the College for this program. After taking the appropriation, the College must report spending to the Interim Finance Committee by December 18, 2026 and by September 17, 2027. If asked, the College must give the Legislative Auditor access to all needed records.
