Startup Kentucky Preparing For Take Off On Friday

Scott Case and Startup America are going to Kentucky Friday to launch the Startup Kentucky initiative. Startup Kentucky, like the other Startup America partnerships around the country, will draw from the resources of the nationwide organization of volunteer entrepreneurs. Startup America is totally free and we are members with Startup Maryland.

If you’re in Kentucky the festivities will be held at Nucleus: Kentucky’s Life Sciences and Innovation Center LLC, 201 E. Jefferson Street. Joining Startup America CEO (and founding CTO of priceline.com) Scott Case, will be the Start Up regions managing director Donna Harris.

The launch events are great because entrepreneurs and startup founders from across the state turn out for a great speech from Scott Case and networking that can’t be beat at a grass-roots level. Did we already mention that joining Startup America is free.  Case is no stranger to Startups, in addition to launching 18 Startup Partnerships across the country, Case was on hand when President Obama signed the JOBS Act into law on April 5th.

More after the break



The other Startup America partnerships are in: Colorado, Connecticut, Washington DC, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, and Virginia. Did we mention that joining is Free? Not only that but they give away great resources. In fact at a Startup America event at South By Southwest I picked up “The Startup Owner’s Manual” a text-book on startups, again totally free from Startup America.

Forgive me for being so brazen but if you’re a Kentucky Entrepreneur or have a startup in Kentucky you’d be an absolute idiot to not take advantage of this great resource. The event runs from 8:30-10:00am with an opportunity to meet with Case and Harris between 10:00am and 11:30am.

Did we mention it was free?
