About the State

For generations, the world has come to the State to create the future and in turn has helped build one of the most diverse and forward-thinking cities in history. Our State is known as a place where new ideas and fresh-thinking are as much a part of the landscape as our mountains, beaches, and unrivaled weather.

The Business Portal

We know that starting a business is not easy. It’s even more difficult when you don’t know where you’re supposed to go or what forms you need to fill out. The Business Portal was designed to be a comprehensive resource to help you get your business off the ground — from how to register your business to how to access the resources available to you to help you succeed and grow.

Built as Open Source

The Business Portal is an open source project — meant to serve as a resource for anyone who is looking to create an online resource for their own business community. This is built off inspiration from the City of San Francisco initial design although the code was built from scratch.

Stay Connected

We would love for you to stay connected with the State, both during your journey to creating a business and beyond. We encourage you to stay connected via the links below and most importantly, share your success with us after you start your own business!
