Small Business is Everybody's Business

Rural communities have real advantages when it comes to attracting new entrepreneurs and retaining small businesses. This virtual conference will provide communities an opportunity to hear nationally-known speakers share information about how rural places can support small businesses. A local panel will also provide information on local outlook and support. Community teams will also have time to strategize about ways they can promote small business in their area.

Speakers include:

Dell Gines, Senior Community Development Advisor, Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. Dell has spoken across the nation on entrepreneurship based economic development, entrepreneurship ecosystems and developing local rural and urban economies through developing entrepreneurship growth strategies.

Craig Schroeder, Senior Fellow for Youth Engagement, Center for Rural Entrepreneurship, Lincoln, NE. Craig has committed his career to helping rural communities create more prosperous futures. Craig’s work extends across 47 states involving well over 40,000 youth.
