Green Bay Launches Business Launch Pad to Support Local Entrepreneurs
What happened
The City of Green Bay and the Greater Green Bay Chamber launched Business Launch Pad, a free website designed to assist entrepreneurs in the Greater Green Bay area. The platform provides resources such as local permit contacts, funding information, and financial planning tools across 17 municipalities. The city funded the website using American Rescue Plan Act money, while the chamber developed it in partnership with the city.

Why it matters
The program centralizes resources for new businesses, supplementing existing local support like Green Bay’s Microenterprise Grant Program, which offers eligible small businesses up to $7,500 for startup and growth expenses. This initiative aims to streamline the process of starting and growing a business in the region.
