YP Sounding Session: The Climate for Entrepreneurship in Cincinnati

May 11th and 12th

Entrepreneurship? Silicon Valley; Boise, Idaho; and Portland, Oregon all come to mind, but what about Cincinnati?

At the Sounding Sessions on May 11th and 12th, we discussed the climate for entrepreneurship in the Cincinnati region and learned from our speakers that entrepreneurship is indeed thriving here and that there are a lot of organizations working to educate, foster and fund entrepreneurs. We heard that entrepreneurship is an integral component of any vibrant city's business community.

Special thanks to everyone who made the day a success, including the Kentucky Mountain Bike Association, the City of Covington, the City of Ludlow and the Cincinnati Off Road Alliance. Thanks to the over 50 volunteers who also showed up at Blue Bar to celebrate a great day.
