Well, here's something we didn't know – the Mississippi Development Authority's Tupelo regional office has moved to the Renasant Center for IDEAs.

On top of that, the Appalachian Regional Commission office in Tupelo also has moved to the Renasant Center, which makes sense since they shared space at their old location.

Here's press release info from MDA:

In a cost-saving effort that will allow MDA to further strengthen existing partnerships in north Mississippi, MDA's regional office in Tupelo has relocated to Suite 230 on the second floor of the Renasant Center for IDEAs, located at 398 East Main St. in Tupelo. The regional office's official first day at the new location was Feb. 1.

The Renasant Center for Ideas is the Tupelo/Lee County regional business incubator. The center provides critical physical and social infrastructure for start-up businesses in the region to help them launch and successfully grow their operations.

With MDA's Tupelo regional office staff working to support area entrepreneurs and small businesses through MDA's Entrepreneur Center, the office's move to the incubator facility will help MDA better align its small business support efforts with those of the agency's partners in the region.

The Mississippi office of the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) has also relocated to the Renasant Center for IDEAs and continues to be co-located with MDA's Tupelo regional office.

MDA's Tupelo regional office staff can still be reached via phone at (662) 844-5441 or (662) 844-5413. The ARC staff can be contacted at (662) 842-3891 or (662) 844-1184. The office's mailing address, P.O. Box 1606, Tupelo, MS 38802-1606, remains the same.
