Creating an Entrepreneurial Ecosystem

Naturally Lewis recognizes entrepreneurs and small business owners as the core of our economy. Rural entrepreneurs profoundly enrich the communities in which they live and launch their ideas because of their direct connection to the needs of their communities, their knowledge of regional talent and, especially, their commitment to their neighbors.

In order to help entrepreneurs launch and grow their business, our goal is to leverage and connect existing resources to provide a pathway to success. By mapping existing programming and working to fill the gaps with local experts and service providers, we have created a pilot program that welcomes entrepreneurs into Lewis County and guides them to grow efficiently. Ultimately, our communities will benefit from new businesses with all the tools to success and the means to create new jobs locally.
