Lakeland Currents host Bethany Wesley welcomes Dave Hengel, the executive director of Greater Bemidji, the economic development group that founded the LaunchPad, and Samantha Nienow, the owner of and presentation designer for Red Zest Design.

The LaunchPad provides resources and support to help entrepreneurs grow their businesses by connecting them with mentors, business consultants, peer networking groups, and more.
