“Through our past WIN meetings and Lake Superior Technology Conferences, we have learned that a compelling need in the Ashland region is creating more opportunities for talented young people to start businesses in the region,” Still said. “We’ll be able to hear from an entrepreneur who got his start in college, and from a university office that was recently awarded a grant by the Kauffman Foundation to help improve the climate for others. We’re pleased we can bring these resources to the region.”
