Special Presentation: mHUB Chicago’s Innovation Center

Thanks to mHUB Chicago’s Shannon McGhee for joining this past Monday National Call to share how their Innovation Center has helped entrepreneurs estabish new businesses and develop new hard-tech products that solve problems! Their Catalyze Initiative recently raised over $1M to help minority-owned businesses scale up operations with technical assistance and incubator space in their new facility.

mHUB is an excellent example of entrepreneurial support that we ought to have in each region! How do you work with your regional incubator? Are there significant barriers to standing up or expanding an organization in your region? Reach out to us!

David Van Siclen, Project Operations Director
