BUSINESS RESOURCES

At the Centre For Business, we offer many resources that entrepreneurs require to get their business started.

Business Registration

What is a Master Business Licence?

A Master Business Licence (MBL) is an official proof of your business name registration. The MBL can be used as proof of business name registration at financial institutions, and to facilitate other business-related transactions with the Ontario Government.

If you have access to high-speed internet, you can register, renew or search a business in Ontario right from home at www.serviceontario.ca.  (Click here for more details)
