Episode 57: The one where Geoff Skypes in from Kauffman

This week on PrairieCast, we turn the model on its side! Andy and our guest, Tej Dwahan of Startup City Des Moines, are live in our studio in the Midland Building, and I join via Skype from the Kauffman Foundation's headquarters in Kansas City. Dwahan's incubator project is close to launching, and he shared lots of details on what's in store.

Additionally, we're giving away two tickets to Startup Weekend Iowa City this weekend! The person who won the live show giveaway can't make it, so two tickets are still up for grabs. The first two people to leave a comment on this post will get the tickets.
