The center is funded exclusively by local corporate, education and municipal sponsorships, and is home to 11 nonprofit organizations that provide training, coaching and a variety of business resources to regional entrepreneurs and small businesses.<\/p>\n<p>CFITO assists regional entrepreneurs and businesses with international commerce opportunities. CFITO was launched as a pilot program in 2014 in response to local companies looking for exporting opportunities. The Office also helps streamline the process for foreign investors to connect and partner with regional businesses and establish local operations. CFITO is funded by Orange County with a dollar-per-dollar match from JP Morgan Chase.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mayor Teresa Jacobs and representatives from Orange
