In the regional business development the important role of different institutional formations. Their initiative is often determines the pace of economic development. Considerable experience gained in the Kaluga region. And one of the most effective institutional tool for this is the entrepreneurship support Fund [1, p. 343].

National entrepreneurship support Fund was created in 1993 by the government of the Kaluga region. Over the years of its activity supported over 600 projects of entrepreneurs in the region. First of all demand financial support - the provision of micro loans, loans, and guarantees, for lack of collateral for loans from banks. Actively develop non-financial forms of support [2, p. 385].

In 2013, the Foundation has offered a new financial product is "555". This loan of up to 5 million rubles for 5 years at 5% per annum for industry, agriculture and personal services. The provision of cheap borrowed funds is an important step in the development of small business in Kaluga region and brings entrepreneurs to achieve their objectives.

Such a low interest rate exists only in the Kaluga region. Micro financial institutions from other regions is not lowered its interest rate below 10%. In Kaluga, this has been achieved by the support of the regional budget [3, p. 355].

An important event in 2013 was the holding Fund Kaluga entrepreneurship week. During the whole week was going round tables were conducted business event information of an Advisory nature, business sessions and master classes.

Of course, one of the most important events of 2013 was the creation of a new division of Fund - business support Center (VSC). His task is to make a stable trend of active development Fund, as well as add new elements into the system of support of small and medium business in the Kaluga region. There is information and consultation activities. In the framework of functional tasks LAC - organizing useful and flexible system of non-financial support to entrepreneurs.

But not only a sufficient amount of financial resources leads to business success. A key factor of success in business is competent management of resources and processes [4, p. 14]. Therefore, to Fund the increased level of knowledge, abilities and skills in the management of his business is the number one task.

Entrepreneurs are invited to undergo training Start your own business", which is held on a monthly basis. Every case begins with the birth of ideas, then the company, and then it all depends on the entrepreneur. On how he would respond to the challenges of the external environment and to properly manage the business.

According to statistics, 70% of the initial stages of coming to an end at the stage of infancy [5, p. 25]. And more often not because of a lack of resources and poor formation of the initial reserves, although this is of enormous importance for success. The main reason for the creation of "stillborn" companies is the lack of ability to manage people and resources. That is, the training Fund, objectively reduce risks.

Regularly in the first week of the month (Wednesday, Thursday and Friday) CSE conducts a training course "Start your own business". This interactive training format, various practical cases and exercises. The training entrepreneurs independently develop marketing and financial framework for the development of their business. The result of course is a ready-made business plan, developed by the entrepreneur. The training is conducted in small groups (up to 12 people) on a grant basis.

• expansion of activities in support of projects;

This can be support with zero address or consulting. The main result of this is a dynamically developing economy of this region.
