Since 1921, the non-profit Hill Library has been serving the Minnesota and national small business community, helping entrepreneurs fulfill the American dream of starting and growing a business. Our mission is "to provide our clients with access to and assistance in finding the practical business information they need to succeed." Our core purpose is to make all of our clients "business smarter," helping them get the data and resources necessary to craft "informed strategy."

We were thus honored when we were asked to build the MN Cup Resource Center and provide MN Cup participants with trials of our HillSearch premium membership program, the most powerful business information tool available for individual entrepreneur. Our ability to provide premium information, resources and tools, and expert assistance ensures that all participants will have the ability to base their business plans and strategies on the best available relevant, credible, and objective information.

The Hill Library Board of Directors wishes all MN Cup participants the best of luck. As the nation's premier source for publicly accessible practical business information, through our walk-in service, online programs, and educational training programs, we look forward to serving all MN Cup participants during the competition and for years to come.

We can't wait to see your big idea!
