The Grow Minnesota! program helps businesses connect to critical resources to grow and expand in Minnesota. We work in partnership with local chambers of commerce, economic development organizations and business resource providers to ensure that Minnesota companies have a strong network of supporters to address key challenges and grow their business here in the state.
What we do
Our Grow Minnesota! staff provide up to two hours of free consultation and follow-up assistance to identify potential resources and connections for your business.
Minnesota Chamber members receive additional assistance at no cost.
How it works:
- Schedule a free consultation with one of our Grow Minnesota! staff.
- During the consultation, we ask questions to get to know your business – what you do, your key challenges, opportunities and priorities for growth.
- Then we identify any potential programs or connections that fit your needs and send you a curated list of resources to review.
- Finally, we help you take the next step, providing further program details and making introductions to the right contacts as needed.
