🎉We’re proud to welcome the 2026 Summer Company participants! This talented group of young entrepreneurs will be spending the summer building real businesses right here in Huron County. We kicked off the program earlier this week to allow the participants a chance to meet in person.
Starting something from scratch takes guts, creativity and a lot of follow-through — and we can’t wait to support this group along the way. They’ll receive training, mentorship and hands-on support as they learn what it takes to run a small business day to day.
