LaunchPad: Empowering Bemidji’s Entrepreneurs

Humans are social creatures, so we think that human-powered businesses need support and communal space to thrive. Our beautiful coworking space in Bemidji’s historic Mayflower building houses a network of mentors and peers. Our social and education events like the Pitch Competition bolster human-powered businesses by helping you connect with other entrepreneurs and executives.

Too often, small businesses and business owners have to just “figure it out” on their own–but, at LaunchPad, we don’t believe that “figuring it out” has to be a lonely or painful process. Our business coaching, resource library, and training opportunities mean that business growth can be collaborative and fun. You don’t have to do it alone!

Because small businesses don’t usually have the resources that corporations do, we offer resources to bridge the gap. You and your business do not have to go without funding in order to remain independent. Instead, utilize our financial advising to create a funding plan. We have in house loan funds, access to government incentives and programs like the Headwaters Angel Network to help find investors.
