Kosciusko EDC Fosters Entrepreneurship with Monthly Socials: A Update

Let’s be real, folks: entrepreneurship is the lifeblood of any thriving economy. It’s the engine that drives job creation, attracts investment, keeps wealth flowing locally, and sparks innovation. And when it comes to championing the entrepreneurial spirit, the Kosciusko Economic Development Corp. (Kedco) is killin’ it.

Kedco: Your Partner in Entrepreneurial Success

Kedco’s mission? To cultivate a supportive and connected entrepreneurial ecosystem right here in Kosciusko County. Think of them as your hype squad, your go-to resource, and your biggest cheerleader all rolled into one. And one of the ways they’re totally crushing it is through their awesome monthly Entrepreneur Socials, a joint effort with the rockstar team at Fortitude Fund.

Building Bridges and Breaking Bread (Sometimes Literally)

“Our goal with these socials is simple: connect the dots,” says Nick Ladig, Kedco’s very own entrepreneurship guru. “We want to bring aspiring and seasoned entrepreneurs together, create a space for networking magic to happen, and ensure everyone has access to the resources they need to thrive.”

And let’s be honest, in the business world, it’s all about who you know. These socials are like networking on steroids, providing a laid-back atmosphere for entrepreneurs to mingle, share war stories, and maybe even find their next business bestie.
