What is Atlas?
Atlas exists to help entrepreneurs find the right resources, support, and community in Maine.
Maine has abundant yet diffuse support for entrepreneurs—making it challenging to navigate.
Resources often come from state agencies or large institutions, but community-driven insights are scarce—leaving entrepreneurs without a clear, unbiased view of the best tools available.
We created Atlas to enable Maine’s entrepreneurs to explore, share, and shape a truly community-managed guide to business support across the state.
Atlas goes beyond a typical database by including real experiences and honest reviews from regional entrepreneurs.
Whether you're looking for funding programs, mentorship, or specific industry pathways, Atlas helps you discover resources tailored to your unique business needs.
