Step 1

START HERE

Let’s find your next step.

One size doesn’t fit all.

Answer a few quick questions and we’ll point you toward the right next step: a program, workspace, community connection, or resource.

Your starting point

Choose one option that best fits.

What brings you here today?

A sentence or two is plenty. Tell us what you’re working on, looking for, or trying to figure out.

Here’s what we heard.

We prefilled a few options based on what you shared. Review them, adjust anything that is off, and select anything else you want us to know.

Your interests and needs

Select all that apply.

How can we reach you?

We’ll use this to follow up and send the right next step.

Contact information

We’ll use this information to follow up about your next step.

What kind of space are you looking for?

We’ll keep this focused on coworking, offices, meeting rooms, or event space.

Space needs

Select all that apply.

For meeting rooms, programs, and event space, the booking page will ask for date, room size, and event details.

Are you also building or operating a business?

Some people come to us just for space. Others are looking for membership and founder support. This helps us avoid treating you like only one thing.

Business owner or founder status

Choose one option that best fits.

Good to know:

If you want both membership and founder support, we’ll keep that together as one follow-up instead of sending you through separate disconnected paths.

Tell us a little about the business.

This helps us understand where you are now and which Startup Sioux Falls services may fit. Nonprofit and social enterprise founders are welcome here too.

Business details

Any specific founder or industry communities we should note?

Some meetups are useful for specific founder contexts. We’ll only add them if they fit.

Founder or industry communities

Select all that apply.

Are you building software or SaaS to sell?

This helps us tell the difference between using technology in your business and building a software product that may need a different kind of support.

Where are you right now?

This helps us route you without making you decode our internal framework.

Business stage

Choose one option that best fits.

A little more about where the business stands.

We only ask this when someone appears to be operating already.

Operating business details

Which of these are true today?

Select all that apply. These help us understand which milestones you may have already reached.

What are you trying to accomplish in the next 90 days?

Business skills

Select all that apply.

Would you also like us to review EIR fit?

Since you selected mentorship, we’ll treat a SCORE connection as part of your next step. Entrepreneur-in-Residence support is separate: it is a focused Startup Sioux Falls review for founders working through a specific business challenge. Submitting this request does not guarantee a meeting, but it gives our team what we need to review fit and route it well.

EIR request details
Keep it brief.

Each answer is limited to 250 characters. We’re looking for enough context to review and route the request, not a full application.

Would one of these outside resources also be helpful?

These are not a separate path. They can be helpful alongside Startup Sioux Falls when a specific need points there.

Outside resources

Select all that apply.

Would a trusted service provider be helpful?

This is where the Preferred Partner Network may come in, after we understand whether outside public resources are relevant.

Preferred service providers

Select all that apply.

What would be most useful right now?

We’ll keep this light and route you to the right community or event path.

How should we help from here?
