Each month tens of thousands of business leaders and decision-makers turn to MinnesotaBusiness Magazine for award-winning coverage on issues affecting growing enterprises.
Why? Because we speak their language.
MinnesotaBusiness cuts through the fluff and asks the questions executives want answered. Delivering insightful and inspirational profiles of Minnesota’s top entrepreneurs and sophisticated marketplace analysis, we don’t just report on the "who" and the "what," we analyze the "why" and the "how."
We approach our work with diligence and attention to detail because MinnesotaBusiness’ readers demand the best. And we do it with integrity. This philosophy serves both the reader and advertiser, who benefit from the association with a highly credible publication.
MARKET POSITION
MinnesotaBusiness is written and designed specifically with the leaders of growing mid-market enterprises (firms with 10 to 500 employees) in mind. Not weighed down by elementary how-to articles or lists of irrelevant data, MinnesotaBusiness cuts right to the heart of the complex challenges facing today’s executives.
We weave together strategic intelligence, insightful analysis, and innovative ideas to assist these sophisticated business leaders at every stage of their life-cycle, whether young, entrepreneurial firm or mature operation. And MinnesotaBusiness offers content that educates, informs, and inspires, enabling business leaders to ignite and sustain growth.

AWARD-WINNING EDITORIAL APPROACH
In competition with local and national business magazines, MinnesotaBusiness has received many awards for editorial excellence.
2003
Association of Area Business Publications
- Best Feature Layout, Gold Award
Judge’s Comments: "The bold presentation of this layout does a good job of reflecting the bold content of the story. The typography is interesting without being overwhelming. The dramatic dark colors are carefully selected to maintain legibility of the text. The opening spread makes good use of a standard portrait. And the clean, consistent elements create a cohesive feel throughout the package."
- Best Body of Work for Single Reporter, Bronze Award
Judge’s Comments: "Mark Druskoff not only writes about more than the business news of Minnesota -- he writes about the people who shape that news. In his profiles, readers get an understanding of the qualities and the faults of some of the major players in Minnesota business. Within those profiles, they also get a deeper understanding of the business trends that affect all Minnesotans."
