MN Black Business Month mini-ConnectUP! Summit- St. Cloud

We are leveraging the success of ConnectUP! Summit in the Twin Cities, we decided to bring mini-ConnectUP Summits for Black Business Month! We will host summit events in three cities across Minnesota: Rochester, St. Cloud, and the Twin Cities. The purpose is to uplift the narrative of thriving Black-owned businesses across the state, connect small businesses to local and statewide support ecosystems and strengthen connections between BIPOC and rural entrepreneurs and investors. This work advances equitable access to capital, resources, and networks. We’re so excited to take ConnectUP! Summit on the road and expand our work into Greater Minnesota.
