Who We Are
Advocate for SpaceNorth
SpaceX. NASA. Blue Origin - We want your offices here. We're going out into our business community and having conversations about Minnesota as SpaceNorth. 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.
