Entrepreneurs! Join us on Wednesday, March 20th for an informational lunch on Bootstrapping! Get ready to learn from entrepreneurs like Dave Howell, Geoff Peters and Nathan Taggart about how they used creative solutions and drew from nontraditional resources to “bootstrap” their products and companies with limited capital.

They'll share their advice on creative ways to generate and manage cash flow, the challenges of putting everything at risk and how to bootstrap even your product strategy by releasing a minimal viable product. Learn how to be creative about the startup journey when bootstrapping.
