About the NCNBN
Nevada County experiences a higher than average out-of-county migration after high school graduation or attendance at Sierra College. Students who leave the county to attend 4-year institutions typically stay in those areas or other more densely populated regions as they begin their careers and their own businesses.
The Nevada County Economic Resource Council and the Nevada County New Business Network (NCNBN) recognize that the Gold Country’s true gold is its youth.
NCNBN seeks to attract and retain young professionals and entrepreneurs between the ages of 20-40, especially former Nevada Union, Bear River, and Truckee High School graduates, who have or are interested in starting a business.
NCNBN is building a comprehensive on-line resource directory of recent and former local graduates, which includes contact information, technical education, and biographical information, with the aim of reaching out to Nevada County graduates who have or are interested in returning to Nevada County to start or build their business and professional careers.
In 2010, NCNBN will then begin work on a modified incubator with the purpose of providing a support system for these new businesses that includes mentoring, financial support and an infrastructure that helps ensure their success.
NCNBN is a non-fee, non-membership based group.

• Business Plan Development
