Community Calendar

The goal of this conference is to share resources, connections and collaborate with as many organizations and people working in the space of economic development, entrepreneurship, business development, and education. Additionally, as part of our Career & Technical Education (CTE) focus, we know that many of our CTE students across the state will end up working in or managing/operating as a small business. The trades are vital to our economy, and bringing students into the arena of entrepreneurship and business development can provide them with business skills/resources to be part of this nation’s core of small business owners.

We have four incredible keynote speakers, Daymond John, Kristen Hadeed, Gary Schoeniger, and Sean Sherman, all with various backgrounds in business, entrepreneurship, leadership and the trades, and breakout sessions with many of our state partners and organizations presenting on related topics or projects.

Attendees can enjoy live music by Jason Pritchett featuring a special opening set by Wyoming musician Jena Spriggs.

Gelli plates enable you to create monoprints on different types of paper, employing stencils, texture tools, and rubber ink stamps.
