Episode 69: The one where the sign fell off the wall

Tej Dhawan of Startup City Des Moines and Emma Peterson of Tikly were our guests today on PrairieCast where we talked about Shannon Thomas and Kenny Younger’s Startup Weekend Love Story, RecBob’s Startup Weekend “launch” in Cedar Rapids and Dusty Reynolds’ question, “can entrepreneurship be taught?” We also looked back at the region’s entrepreneurial history and compared it to the activity that we’re seeing in the Silicon Prairie today.

Next week on PrairieCast: Sam DuRegger of Dwolla and Emma Peterson of Tikly (back for week two!)
