I’ve been enlightened by the experience of working with entrepreneurs for the last several years from all walks of life, all shapes and sizes and perhaps, more importantly all ages.
As we work as a nation to stimulate our economy and well being as both individuals and as a state and country, it is refreshing to see the passion that comes from small business startups. I recently spent 4+ years with a startup nonprofit, transitioned into a role to assist with a community based business incubator initiative, and have since landed with one of those incubating companies, in a role of growing their presence.
I guess my overriding message is, get on the bandwagon and support your local startup small businesses and encourage the type of legislative support that positions them for success.
