Minneapolis Business

The city of Minneapolis has so much to offer. Whether you are looking to start, expand, green or relocate a business to Minneapolis, we can assist you.
The city is home to industry and businesses of all kinds, both large and small. Minneapolis and the surrounding 11-county region consistently ranks among the best places to do business in the U.S. Three things set Minneapolis apart: a robust and diverse economy, a highly educated workforce, and an outstanding quality of life. No wonder the metro makes the short list of site selectors, business owners, and entrepreneurs from around the globe.
