I'm currently looking at trying to start my own business and need ideas on going about locating investors. Or do any of these grants really work for new business owners? Any ideas?

Hi, tands!

What kind of business would this be concerning, please?

It would be helpful to know that.

Thanks!

Still a little vague,

If you are going to provide 30 jobs, you most likely can find a development area that will have all sorts of tax and maybe even discounts on rental of buildings or low to no interest loans to purchase some industrial buildings.

If you move into depressed areas you may get tax credits toward hiring a number of people

You may get money for hiring ex cons from some government programs.

If you are going to lest say develop a electric car you may get grant money.

As for investors, you work up a business plan and shop it around
