Our Story

Founder Dr. Helen Cummins

The hc/ Connect & Grow business community was born out of a burning desire to support small business owners in Mallorca succeed. After more than 20 years doing business on the island, Helen (I) knows how difficult the challenges are, how frustrating it can be and how isolated you can feel trying to run a business here. The cultural differences, the fragmentation of the marketplace, the seasonal factor, the language barriers, the list goes on and on… and yet here we are living our dream and striving to succeed.

So many of my clients were saying the same thing, we need support, we need to know there is someone to ask for a second opinion, we need to feel we belong to a community that can help us survive and thrive in Mallorca.” – Dr. Helen Cummins
