ENTREPRENEURSHIP
UPDATED WEEKLY

Caffe Genius is all about thinking outside the box, from Experimental Meetup Colaboratories to Pitch Workout Rooms to the Genius Roundtable and more; the idea is to consider seriously the Entrepreneurial Innovation Ecosystem (based in Greater Las Vegas… for now) and how we can measure and elevate it, and Impressarios can describe these and more with their stories. With deliberate spelling.

Episode 0146: What Are Vegas KPIs and OKRs ?

Episode 0143: It Does Take a Village

Show Notes Host: Dan Hugo Summary: We talk a lot about the Entrepreneurial Innovation Ecosystem, the so-called Startup Scene, and sometimes Hollywood 2.0 and Global Innovation Hub and a few other things, but it occurs to me after mentioning how little coverage any of this gets in our local press, that those who are not checking the box for Entrepreneur may have no idea what goes off the strip.
