The Lenawee & Hillsdale Pitch Presentations are officially complete.

We had the opportunity to hear from an incredible group of entrepreneurs and innovators who applied to be part of the 2026 Lenawee & Hillsdale Fellows Cohort. Thank you to everyone who pitched, shared their vision, and took the next step in growing their business.
Now the next phase begins.

Stay tuned as we prepare to announce the entrepreneurs selected to participate in this year’s bootcamp.

05/26/2026

🚀 The last 90 days of the Jackson Fellows Cohort have been full of growth, learning, connection, and momentum.

From applications and pitches to an intensive business bootcamp, these Fellows committed themselves to building stronger businesses and stronger foundations for the future.

Over the past few months, they explored business finance, branding, leadership systems, operations, public relations, taxes and accounting, personal finance, milestone planning, and more alongside an incredible group of mentors, educators, and community partners.

And to wrap it all up, we celebrated.

The final event brought everyone together to showcase products, connect with the community, celebrate accomplishments, and recognize the hard work that went into the journey. It was an incredible opportunity to see how much these businesses have grown and hear more about where they’re headed next.

We’re proud of every Fellow who showed up, put in the work, and kept building over the last 90 days. 👏

Michigan business owners, we've got a great workshop coming up.

On June 18, we're bringing Jake Cross of Uncharted Film Co. to the Sales & Marketing Accelerator for a free virtual workshop: Video Marketing Workshop, Turn Content Into Customers. https://www.unchartedfilmco.com

Most business owners know they should be doing video.

Almost none know what to film, where to put it, or how to make it actually pay off. Jake's about to fix that in 60 minutes.

You'll walk away with:
• What to film when you have no budget
• Where to put it so it reaches actual buyers
• A framework you can use the same afternoon

Thursday, June 18 · 12 – 1 PM · Virtual · Free

Don't miss out! Register today.

🚀 Lean Rocket Lab is already outpacing 2025 in key impact areas.

In just the first quarter of 2026, we’ve supported entrepreneurs, strengthened small businesses, deployed more grant funding, and expanded job impact across our region at a pace that is already nearing and, in some categories, surpassing all of 2025.

We continue to support startups, microbusinesses, early-stage companies, and workforce growth throughout the region.

This impact is possible because of the entrepreneurs, partners, small business owners, and community members continuing to invest in what’s next for our local economy.

We’re proud of the progress so far and excited for what’s ahead.

📊 Take a look at the Q1 2026 impact infographic for details!
