Startup Series
Live Workshops and Tools
Making the South Haven Region a place where entrepreneurs want to start and grow.
Combining collective knowledge, connections and resources of the community, creating initiatives and partnerships for ALL our local entrepreneurs.
Work on your business, not just in your business.
The South Haven Regional Business Hub’s Growth Series is designed for organizations between 3-5 years old who want to grow. The process starts with technology called the Growth Wheel that identifies gaps and sets up a customized milestone-based plan for the organization to follow. Along with one-on-one individual mentoring during the 20 weeks participants will attend in-person workshops focusing on additional processes for consistency and growth not identified through the Growth Wheel.

Build Confidence. Strengthen Connections. Lead with Clarity.
The Strong Leader Series™ is a three-part professional development experience designed to help leaders at every level increase their influence, think strategically, and bring out the best in others.
- Thursdays, Oct. 8, 15, 22, from 8:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
