Celebrating the Entrepreneurial Spirit
You’re invited to celebrate with us … as GLEQ joins Western Michigan Economic Development organizations, entrepreneurs, investors, consultants, coaches and mentors on April 10 to celebrate the entrepreneurial spirit.
Keynote speaker, Keith Brophy, will kick off the evening. Brophy, a former Ernst & Young West Michigan Entrepreneur of the Year, is currently President of Services and co-owner of software provider NuSoft Solutions. He participated in the startup of Sagestone Consulting and many software companies. Brophy held technology positions at X-Rite Incorporated and IBM Federal Systems and is an author, adjunct faculty member, and speaker at events across the nation. He describes himself as a “transformational technologist, author of well-timed, yet quickly obsolete books sold across the word at the dawn of the Internet boom, and accidental pioneer of the two-cell-phone productivity techniques.”
Following Brophy’s address, area entrepreneurs participating in the FastTrac TechVenture program will pitch their business plans to an investor panel with Jack Ahrens, TGap Ventures; Jerry Scott, Grand Angels; and Skip Simms, SPARK and Michigan Pre-Seed Fund.
FastTrac is an intensive six-week entrepreneurial training program developed by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation. GLEQ and MI-SBTDC, together with business development organizations around the state, host this program in Michigan. This nationally recognized and respected tech venture curriculum was presented for the first time in western Michigan in March. Participants in the program are starting companies in a broad range of technology fields and life sciences.
Join the FastTrac sponsoring organizations, facilitators, coaches, speakers, investors and guests in celebrating the achievements of our FastTrac participants on Thursday, April 10, 2008, 5 – 8 p.m. at the McCamly Plaza Hotel, Battle Creek, Michigan.
Please R.S.V.P. to Dotson@bcunlimited.org or www.bc-connected.org. For more information contact Jack Miner at miner@bcunlimited.org.
Partner organizations supporting FastTrac and the Celebration of Entrepreneurship are GLEQ, MI-SBTDC, MichBio, The Right Place, Inc., Lakeshore Advantage, Southwest Michigan First and Battle Creek Unlimited.
