A local nonprofit focused on encouraging startup growth in the Sioux Falls area announced intentions to rebrand and relocate Thursday evening.
The Zeal Center for Entrepreneurship and Startup Sioux Falls announced at the Hey Sioux Falls awards ceremony that it will rebrand under one name: Startup Sioux Falls.
Along with rebranding, the organization will relocate to downtown Sioux Falls to improve access for its community members. The nonprofit, which has offices available for its entrepreneurial members, is currently located in northwestern Sioux Falls near Southeast Tech and the CTE Academy.
The actual location has not been secured yet, said Startup Sioux Falls Executive Director Brienne Maner in an emailed statement. The organization is working on finalizing how much space it needs.
