Entrepreneurs with a vision ready to grow their business can find expert guidance and clear direction this fall through CEO Start, a program offered by the City of Bloomington and Hennepin County.

CEO Start gives aspiring and early-stage business owners an energizing space to develop ideas, build connections, and gain practical tools for success.

The fall session runs from September 23 - December 2 and brings together a peer group for weekly in-person sessions focused on business formation basics, fundamental knowledge, customer discovery, strategy, and a playbook to get real-world feedback. Participants also receive guidance from experienced business leaders and collaborate with fellow innovators.

The program concludes with a final pitch night on December 9 where participants share their refined concepts with community supporters.

Applications are being accepted June 19 - July 15. Apply at blm.mn/ceo.
