Celebration of entrepreneurship: Listening and learning

Join us as we celebrate the amazing accomplishments of local and national entrepreneurship and look forward with Victor Hwang, founder of Right to Start, an organization working to make it easier for everyone across the county to start and grow their business.  

Entrepreneurs drive job creation, boost incomes, and generate wealth in our communities. Yet, starting and growing a business is often challenging for many. It’s time to put entrepreneurial opportunity at the front of our agenda. 

See how Minnesota and Hennepin County economic development efforts fit in with national efforts to develop more business ownership and what you can do to support entrepreneurship.  

Hosted by Elevate Hennepin, an entrepreneur focused initiative powered by Hennepin County
