Buckle your seat belts for a wild ride this week. Eight events will have you bouncing back and forth between Omaha, Des Moines and the respective surrounding areas. To kick things off, Tuesday in Lincoln will feature the first of two VBA Silicon Prairie events on Angel Investing. Later that evening in Des Moines, Startup Drinks will serve up some brewskis and conversation at Tally’s. On Wednesday, the VBA Silicon Prairie event on Angel Investing will make its way to Omaha. And in Cedar Rapids, Vault Coworking will host Coworking Wednesday. Later that evening, Dwolla will host its highly anticipated meetup at Americana in downtown Des Moines, and Startup Weekend Omaha will spark up the startup energy with a pre-event meetup at CAMP Coworking. We will finish the week strong with two events on Thursday, the first TechBrew in Ames, and Tom Chapman’s last Cornstalks in Omaha.
