Empowering Equity 
Through Entrepreneurial Education

By investing in education and community, MEDA creates pathways for entrepreneurs to thrive and contribute to a stronger, more equitable economy.

Roadmap to Business Success Course Series

Participants in these education courses will:

  • Gain practical knowledge and skills to grow their businesses.

  • Receive a certificate of completion for each course.

  • Be invited to exclusive opportunities within the MEDA ecosystem, including networking, mentorship, and access to resources.

Program Focus

MEDA’s VAN (Volunteer Accelerator Network) Program tailors education for small business owners in North Minneapolis, a community that has historically faced systemic challenges, including over-policing and economic barriers. Our goal is to provide essential education to entrepreneurs through programming such as the Roadmap to Business Success Series.
