Supporting the Region’s Entrepreneurial Community
The Grove Venture Lab is a nonprofit that provides small businesses and nonprofits with the tools, education and support network they need to grow sustainably and achieve greater success. We leverage the expertise already in our region to support entrepreneurs - for profit and not - in the Glens Falls / Lake George region.
You can find our office at WorkSmart in downtown Glens Falls — It’s already an exciting place, and we are excited to add to the activity in the region.

Community
A new business or charity shouldn't have to do and learn everything on their own. Let’s tap into the experience already earned earned by those around us to save money and launch faster. Even with help, entrepreneurship can feel like a lonely struggle, so we bring people together who get it - who can commiserate, celebrate and encourage each other.
-
Education
Launching and running a business can be hard. Let’s bring our collective experience together to make it easier and increase the odds for success with workshops and coaching.
-
Incubation
A successful launch requires intense planning and experimentation - so what better place than a “venture lab”? We’ll help structure that planning and provide a dedicated place for getting the work done and meeting with all of the people who come together to make a new venture fly.
-
Capital
Access to capital is always tricky. We’ll bring together information about funding sources and grant opportunities to help entrepreneurs focus fundraising efforts in the right direction. And, of course, we’ll help you put your best foot forward when it comes time to make your pitch.
