The Northeast Indiana Innovation Center (NIIC), in conjunction with Global Entrepreneurship Week, has announced the launch of the NEIN Venture Hub for communities and organizations to collaborate to help individuals start, launch, and grow their businesses.

About 50 organizations and resource partners currently use the NEIN Venture Hub. That number will grow as Noble County and other communities in the region continue to add local organizations, resources, and events. Individuals will be able to maximize impact by engaging in this free online ecosystem.

To get started, users can register at https://startupspace.app/hub/NIIC. Companies who would like to customize a “sub-hub” can contact Rhonda Ladig at rladig@niic.net for more information.

Some of the primary offerings of the Venture Hub include:

• Resources – find specific resources needed through a robust (and growing) network.
• Events – find information – all in one place – for events and training happenings throughout Indiana.
• Knowledge – access tools, articles, blogs, video training to upskill when needed, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
• Mentorship – mentors and mentees connect here.
