We’re striking a nice balance of events across the Priarie this week. With all events starting in the latter half of the week, the SBIR/STTR Proposal Strategy Bootcamp workshop begins on Thursday in Omaha and TechBrew starts sipping later that evening in Des Moines. Taking us into the weekend, we find buzzing activity in Kansas City with a Venture Friday at Red Nova Labs and a two-day WordCamp meetup.
Look forward every Sunday for a preview of events happening in the coming week.

Ready to come out of the entrepreneurial closet and meet like-minds in KC?
Red Nova Labs is pleased and eager to be part of a Midwest startup “uprising” proving that web/tech/app/game/mktg advances and success do not solely happen in the well-funded ‘burbs of Silicon Valley.
