Minnesota: Land of 10,000 Opportunities

Minnesota introduced a new tax incentive? You betcha! With an annual cap of $25M, a 15% credit on non-resident BTL, and locally headquartered businesses like Target, Best Buy, US Bank and General Mills (and entrepreneurs and taxpayers) ready to pay for the 25% transferrable tax credit, you don’t want to miss the opportunity to film in Minnesota!
