We hope to develop strategic partners that can be on board with our SpaceNorth mission as a benefit to the Minnesota business landscape and the people who live and work here.
Aerospace & STEM Resources
We support Minnesota-based aerospace and STEM activities and events. In our mission to build a technically curious workforce, we want to provide resources for Minnesota teens to explore STEM careers, scholarships and internships.
