MIDDLEBURY — Community Barn Ventures in Middlebury is hosting a Vermont Business Ecosystem Meetup on Wednesday, April 3, from 5:30 to 8 p.m. at their space at 44 Main St. in Middlebury. The Meetup is for entrepreneurs and small businesses in Addison County as well as members of entrepreneurial networks.
Organizers want to hear business owners’ thoughts and suggestions for amplifying the current business ecosystem, such as how to build a more productive environment for entrepreneurs, what the barriers or challenges are, and what’s missing from the pool of resources.
Hosts Stacey Rainey and Mary Cullinane of Community Barn Ventures will lead a conversation with Sarah Kearns (VtSBDC), Fred Kenney (ACEDC) and Sas Stewart (Stonecutter Spirits) around ecosystem building, as it relates directly to economic development.
Enjoy complimentary adult beverages, light appetizers and a productive, thought-provoking conversation.
