For more than two decades, the Holly Company has been developing and enhancing economic development tools that connect business owners and entrepreneurs with resources to help them grow their revenue and ideas. Through collaboration with business and development organizations, entrepreneurs have been linked with capital and financing, advisers and mentors, and events such as workshops and meetings that build capacity and networks. A greater knowledge base and larger networks result in increased commerce that helps communities thrive.
The Finance New Mexico project, launched in 2007 in collaboration with the New Mexico Small Business Investment Corporation and supported by nonprofit economic development organizations and financial institutions, offers information and resources to increase access to capital.

The Grow It! project, made possible by the New Mexico Municipal League to stimulate private sector job development, delivered local resources to business owners when they registered or licensed with their municipality. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Grow It! was folded into the Finance New Mexico project.
The Biz Calendar, New Mexico’s statewide business event calendar, connected people with workshops and networking events to increase their skills and build their networks. Events are now found under New Announcements on the Finance New Mexico website.
