Northern State University held a groundbreaking ceremony for its leading-edge Business and Health Innovation Center Thursday afternoon in front of Lincoln Hall.

Slated for completion in late 2025, the Business and Health Innovation Center will include state-of-the-art facilities for business, banking, finance, accounting, entrepreneurship, nursing and social learning spaces. It will also be home to the Innovation and Startup Center and serve as a hub for community members to directly engage with innovative business and health programming and resources.
