We believe

  • Entrepreneurs are the backbone of a vibrant regional economy. Our rural communities thrive when local business owners are engaged in launching or scaling new business efforts.
  • Innovation drives business growth in rural communities. Good ideas turn into great business practices when they have the advantage of local mentoring and support.
  • Diversity is foundational to create a welcoming community for new businesses. Together we can create a rural community that offers a safe and encouraging place where everyone can succeed.
  • Community is critical for entrepreneurial success. Entrepreneurs thrive where there are supportive ecosystems providing education, resources, mentoring, and fiscal support.
