Minneapolis Telecommunications Network

MTN connects community to media and technology.

Our mission is to foster innovation, education, and collaboration in the fields of technology, media, and the arts. We aim to empower individuals and organizations to explore, learn, and grow in an ever-changing technological landscape.

MTN provides access to media and technology training, equipment, and collaborative opportunities for our members throughout Minnesota.

Through partnerships with other nonprofits, community organizations, and businesses, we are able to provide opportunities for community members to collaborate, learn, and share their unique perspectives and stories with the larger public. By learning how to use technology to create their own media, distribute it on cable, social media, and web channels, all while gaining entrepreneurial skills, members are able to freely express themselves and their unique perspectives - setting them on a pathway to self-sustainability!

By contributing to MTN today, we will be better able to continue to provide our services, as well as offer new creative experiences for adult learners, our elders, and cultural groups, so they can all more easily share themselves with the world.

One of our newer programs, Technitium, provides students of all ages withtable top certifications in different Engineering, Media, and Technologies. This is a part of our collaboration with the MN State IT and Engineering Centers of Excellence called UpSkill MN.
