Cultivate Lancaster

Cultivate Lancaster provides opportunities for entrepreneurs, small business owners, and business resource providers in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, to connect, collaborate, and grow.

What began as a biannual workshop series in December 2015 has since evolved into a collaborative initiative led by a Coalition of over 20 non-profit, for-profit, government, and educational institutions that is dedicated to providing emerging entrepreneurs and micro businesses with opportunities to meet, network, and share their experiences with one another; direct channels to engage with local small business support organizations and learn about their services; and easy access to tools, resources, and programming that’s tailored for startups.

Cultivate Lancaster meets regularly to discuss entrepreneur- and startup-focused programming needs, to identify opportunities for collaboration across its member organizations, and to create shared goals aimed at broadening and strengthening the network of Lancaster’s resource providers.
