Startup St. Bernard to Support Entrepreneurs

Startup St. Bernard presented by the Meraux Foundation is seeking out innovative entrepreneurs to compete for a huge prize package designed to help propel their business to the next level. Entrepreneurs are invited to apply for a chance to pitch their business to a panel of judges in St. Bernard Parish during New Orleans Entrepreneur Week.

Startup St. Bernard’s goal is to create opportunities for innovative entrepreneurs to locate their businesses in St. Bernard Parish. The Parish is a land of opportunity for businesses, especially startups. While just minutes away from downtown New Orleans, land, labor, and costs of doing business are low — and the business support network is robust.

Details on will be announced soon.

If you would like to support the event or are an entrepreneur interested in participating, please contact us.

The challenge is being organized in partnership with the Meraux Foundation, The Idea Village™, The Entrepreneur Center at Nunez Community College, St. Bernard Chamber of Commerce, and Leadership St. Bernard. The program will help market all St. Bernard’s assets, including all it has to offer to businesses and families.
