Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Those entrepreneur seeking to make the world a better place have difficulty finding one another and instead often operate in isolation. They need to find one another to build a collective system of support and shared knowledge. They also need specialized business tools and a place to nurture their ideas. Without a supportive environment these innovators loose motivation and their important ideas are not pursued. We live in a time that screams for new solutions to vexing problems. Impact Hub MSP responds by offering support, tools, connections access to business training and more.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
SPACES FOR IDEAS TO GROW
Members and guests can work in the space for hours, days,or all week long. They learn from one another and form experts available at Impact Hub MSP. We provide desks, office support, connections to experts and others pursuing impactful change in the community.
The space and related services allow members to work the way that best meets their needs: a place that hosts events that enable connections to like-minded while working elsewhere; a place to hold customer meetings instead of coffee shops while working out of their home; a place to work in weekly or daily to get work done; an address for their business use with mail access daily; a place to offer their training services; an office for their growing staff; and more. Others may need a well-equipped training space; an event space for larger groups or a location across town to better connect with their customers or members. Impact Hub MSP is now in a space that can meet those needs

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Impact Hub MSP members fall along a continuum related to their ventures:
• Those with ideas for a social business,
• Those who have begun and maybe ready to reassess,
• Those who are growing and need new solutions to cope with challenges
• Those who are seeking to join into an existing social business
They are of all ages, genders and orientations and races. Their businesses may make products or services, but all are intent on making the world a better place by what they create, how they create it and what they do with the profits the business earns.
Outcomes promised to social entrepreneurs and innovators:
1. Strong connections with others to enhance ideas and increase effectiveness
2. Access to entrepreneurial support and resources that make it easier to launch or grow a change making venture
3. Office space, support, and staff training that reduces their administrative costs significantly
4. Opportunities to share their knowledge and expertise, work with other professionals, and find new market opportunities
Outcomes promised to organizations supporting social purpose ventures:
1. More interconnections to enhance the sector in the Twin Cities Minnesota region & reduce redundancy
2. Access to event and meeting space at reasonable and reduced rates including marketing support
3. Connections to a global network of changemakers, expanding the resources available to organizations in this region
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
1. Membership grows significantly; Members are retained longer & are happy
2. Earned Income grows & new streams of income added
3. Internal operating systems apply best business practices, create quality information for decision-making, are applied consistently, and are easy to use
