Northwestern University Law School's Small Business Opportunity Center (SBOC) is the first transactional clinic at any major law school. The SBOC provides low cost legal advice to start-up companies and non-profit organizations in the greater Chicago area.
Since its founding in 1998, more than 1,000 potential clients have come to the SBOC for legal assistance and over 300 have been served. These include technology executives, consultants, inventors, manufacturers and sellers of consumer products, musical groups, and persons interested in establishing nonprofit organizations.
The Center is also heavily involved in teaching in the field of entrepreneurship law, and hosts symposia and conferences to facilitate that endeavor. In particular, in 2006 the SBOC hosted the first ever entrepreneurship conference at any law school in the country.
