Welcome to Minne Inno, a brand new digital media and events company focused on local innovation. We're part of a network of sites - we're in Boston, Chicago, D.C. and Austin - and are owned by the American City Business Journals.
We're committed to helping strengthen the Twin Cities ecosystem through authoritative, insightful, original editorial, a fun, daily newsletter - sign up for The Beat - and social, engaging events and meetups. In every city we're in, we're in awe of the founders, entrepreneurs and executives that are driving their local innovation economies forward and pledge to hustle as hard as they do, keeping our communities connected, informed and growing.
Minne Inno will be anchored by Maddy Kennedy, our lead staff writer. A Twin Cities native and former business reporter with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Maddy will be working out of the office of Minneapolis-St. Paul Business Journal. Please drop her a note, or two or three or seven, at MKennedy@AmericanInno.com.
As you'll see with some of our first couple of posts, we love to tell stories about the people behind the companies, ideas and organizations that are shaping the present and future of the Twin Cities business landscape. On Inno, you'll also find longer looks into the trends and topics that are impacting and influencing our cities' reputation as both an established and emerging tech hub, as well as resource-driven lists and multimedia, and much, much more. If it's local and innovative, it'll be in Minne Inno.
Finally, in all of our markets, we like to take what we do online and bring it offline as often as we can. It's the best way to foster community and collision, as well as learn and let loose. It'd be great for you to join us at our kickoff event on July, 20th; more information here.
If you're reading this post, it means you're passionate about the Twin Cities ecosystem. So help us be great. What do you want to see more of? Less of? If you have a story about local innovation, share it with us.
We're thrilled to be in the Twin Cities and can't wait to get started. Let's go.
