BG Chamber exploring development of a business incubator

District 419 in Bowling Green

From BOWLING GREEN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

It is exciting to get started in a business venture that is your dream – your passion.   That excitement all too often can come to a screeching halt because of insufficient capital, poor planning or organization.  What can be done to increase the success rate of being an entrepreneur?  Business incubators are being established in many cities to change outcomes to more positive ones.   

The Four Corners Center Organizations has been working on a space with Lisa Palmer at Calico Sage and Thyme to utilize as a business incubator for the Bowling Green Area – District 419.    The BGSU Economic Development Class, under the direction of Dr. Russell Mills is involved in this project as well.

The next step in this process is for those entrepreneurs who may be interested in such a space to have a voice in this project.  Dr. Mills class is gathering information and have put together the following survey to understand the needs and interest of area entrepreneurs.   The deadline to participate in the survey is April 30th and is available online only at the following link:  https://bgsu.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eyzNuZLBEPqNxcx .

Questions about the project can be directed to Mary Hinkelman, Executive Director of the Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce at director@bgchamber.net or by calling 419-353-7945.
