2014 Conference -- Tawas/Oscoda

2014 Program and Sessions

Links to each of the 2014 session notes and/or PowerPoint Presentations are available below.

The noon – noon program included keynote speakers and many breakout sessions on a wide variety of topics, all designed to provide your community ideas, resources and information to take back to your community to support entrepreneurs.

One of the hallmarks of this conference are the unique and quirky venue locations.  The various breakout sessions are held right in the various businesses in the community.  No boring meeting rooms here; you can wander around the downtown as you move from session to session (see past conference photos).  This creative approach has proven enjoyable and offers plenty of opportunity for networking and seeing first hand an entrepreneurial community at work.
