Business Briefing- Hospitality ERG (HERG) 2nd Round
The ND Department of Commerce, in partnership with the Greater North Dakota Chamber, will be holding a Special Business Briefing on Thursday, January 28, at 12:00 pm (CST) to address questions, share how to prepare for completing the application and announce a timeline when Commerce will begin accepting applications for the second round of the Hospitality ERG (HERG).

- A bar or lounge with a current on-sale liquor license issued by the appropriate legal entity;
- An entertainment venue to include indoor recreation entertainment (e.g., bowling alleys, indoor golf clubs, and indoor trampoline parks where service fees apply; dance studios, movie, drama or music theaters and facilities used to host community and private events); and
- A production company that provides technology and audio-visual services to meetings and events.
Applicants who have not received previous funding from the HERG may receive up to $25,000 and eligible entities with multiple locations may receive up to $75,000. A max of $25,000 will be allowed per location.
If applicants received funding in the first round, and it was under $25,000, they may apply for additional qualifying funds UP TO $25,000 MAXIMUM. Grant recipients are required to comply with ND Smart Restart protocols. Funding will be approved if the application meets all criteria and funding is available.
