The Best Days of Black Business in Minnesota Are Ahead.
Minnesota has always been a place of possibility. And right now, something remarkable is happening in its Black business community — a resurgence of entrepreneurial energy, creative ambition, and economic power that is reshaping what Minnesota's economy looks like and who gets to build it.
