Description

Thinking of starting a new business or expanding an existing one in Massachusetts? 

Join MA's Executive Office of Economic Development team members Naomi Berlin (Assistant Secretary for Business Growth) and Alexandra Husted (Greater Boston Regional Director) for an in-depth look at the Commonwealth’s new Business Front Door program. 

Designed to support companies at every stage—from early-stage startups to established employers—the Business Front Door offers a single, streamlined entry point to the state’s full suite of business resources. You’ll learn how the program connects businesses with tailored tools and support, including job incentive and capital grant programs, workforce recruitment and upskilling opportunities, and help navigating permitting or working with other state agencies. 

This session will offer practical guidance on how to engage with the Business Front Door, examples of how the navigator team can support growth, and opportunities for businesses to tap into Massachusetts’ robust innovation and economic development ecosystem.
