\n\nIn our region\, entrepreneurship has had the power to impact so much more in our communities. From the maker who goes into business to build generational wealth for their family\, to the pioneer who wants to change the world with an innovative service\, entrepreneurship does so much to shape where we live and the people we become.
\n\nOn August 15\, 2023\, the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City and KCSourceLink will bring together individuals and organizations from various sectors of the entrepreneurial ecosystem to forge new connections and explore how our ecosystem and entrepreneurs&rsquo\; needs have shifted. We will also come together to learn more and share the impact that small business development and entrepreneurship have in our region.
\n\nThe Power of Entrepreneurship: Connecting Communities will focus on the role of small business development and entrepreneurship in economic development and community development.

\n\n\n - Connect individuals and groups within the entrepreneurial ecosystem
