Support for Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses

The process of converting an idea into a business venture requires intensity, focus and a support network. Our mission is to help entrepreneurs build strong businesses, and we do that in three ways.

Business Consulting & Coaching

We provide business consulting and coaching to early-stage companies and aspiring entrepreneurs. We’ll help you explore the feasibility of an idea, identify a new market for your product or service, evaluate your marketing, understand how to hire the right employees and more.

Business Incubation When You’re Starting a Business

Business incubation is a focused process that includes management guidance, technical assistance and consulting for young, growing companies. Entrepreneurs can locate their business in the incubator as a residential or associate tenant. Residential tenants can access services and rent dedicated office or lab space for up to three years. Associate tenants have access to our services but do not rent dedicated space. Meridian has incubation facilities located in Stillwater and Guthrie. To learn more about the business incubation program and to apply, please contact us through our website at meridiantech.edu/bes.
