Building Businesses and Communities

The Oklahoma Department of Commerce is the primary economic development entity in the state. We recruit new businesses to the state by promoting the great assets we have for businesses to succeed. We work to foster an entrepreneurial culture and infrastructure in Oklahoma to encourage the start-up of new businesses and partner with communities to ensure existing businesses grow and prosper.

 

Doing Business in Oklahoma

From aerospace to agribusiness and financial services to startups, we help businesses grow. Operating a business can be challenging, but Oklahoma has removed the barriers and streamlined the process to make it easier for companies to develop and grow. With living costs as much as 40% lower than the national average and world-class workforce development programs, we’re making it easier to plug into the Oklahoma business ecosystem to gain access to the people, programs, and tools that will support real-time business decisions.

 

STEP Fund

Promoting your company at trade shows can be an effective way to gain recognition in your industry and to enter into the global market or expand your international trade capabilities. But not every small business is in the position to coordinate trade show logistics or design and operate their own trade booth. The Oklahoma Department of Commerce makes it possible for Oklahoma companies to partner with the state at trade shows across the globe. With the help of the Oklahoma STEP Fund, qualified companies can get reimbursed for 75% of the participation cost.

 

The STEP Fund is a matching grant reimbursing 75% of costs for three different designated services: participation costs and travel expenses to exhibit at international trade shows, cost of Export Compliance Training, and Export Solutions through US Commercial Services.
