Creating Startup Junkies focuses on the unique proposition of building sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystems in Unexpected Places. Arkansas, and many other states and communities, are well-positioned to inspire and empower entrepreneurs and innovators through the intentional cultivation of talent, a collaborative culture, engagement of their local community, and the capitalization of early-stage ventures. Creating Startup Junkies outlines this genesis through knowledge, anecdotes, tools, and a framework to transform your community and to create your own team of Startup Junkies.
In Creating Startup Junkies, you will:
- Discover the Four Pillars of sustainable ecosystem building and how to apply them in your own community.
- Read stories and anecdotes about how other "Unexpected Places" have deployed and cultivated these pillars to build sustainable venture ecosystems.
- Learn to use the Venture Ecosystem Building Canvas to assess your own community against the Four Pillars in order to build a plan for long-term success.
- Receive valuable tools, insights, and anecdotes that will fire your imagination, fuel your actions, and enable your success.
