This initiative is part of a larger effort to make Santa Fe’s libraries key community-driven hubs for professional and economic development.
The Santa Fe Office of Economic Development supports and connects the local business community by providing resources for entrepreneurs and businesses to thrive. Through collaboration and knowledge-sharing, they help drive growth and innovation in Santa Fe’s economy.
Creative Startups, based in Santa Fe, NM, is a global leader in driving the growth of creative economies. Working with cities, states, and regions, they develop comprehensive strategies that address the unique needs of creative entrepreneurs and programs that grow creative companies. Through their Libraries as Launchpads initiative, we activate libraries as accessible small business support hubs and navigators for local business resources, helping entrepreneurs connect to the tools and networks they need to succeed.
