This session highlights the robust ecosystem supporting the “Made in Massachusetts” movement. We will focus on the specific resource partners—including CWE and the SBA—dedicated to helping manufacturers scale. From drafting strategic growth plans and navigating financials to securing funding and optimizing marketing, this session provides a toolkit for manufacturers looking to expand their footprint in the state.
Founders are everywhere, but resources aren’t.
That’s a shame, because the next big idea could come from anywhere.
The Massachusetts Founder Network aims to bridge the gap, giving startup founders equitable access to resources that will help their companies grow.
We support MA founders no matter where they come from, their company’s stage, or their business sector. We want to democratize access to the resources that will help them accelerate—and excel. All founders are welcome to find resources and community at MFN while creating connections, expanding their networks, and learning from one another.
