RENO, Nev. — With Reno-Sparks boasting a strong reputation as a hub for startups and entrepreneurs, now more than ever is an important time to foster solutions-based conversations regarding how this region is set up for economic success.

With that in mind, the NNBV's August Breakfast & Business event — scheduled for 7-9 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 1, at the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa in Reno — will provide important updates into how the region is continually building an entrepreneur-friendly environment while helping new businesses succeed.

Our expert panel will delve into our innovation ecosystem, discussing topics including:

  • An overall look at workforce development and interest among employers and investors to foster startups and entrepreneurs across Northern Nevada.
  • A breakdown of resources that already exist in our region — and where we face challenges.
  • Opportunities for funding in the region, including angel investors, seed money, crowdfunding and more.
  • Northern Nevada's business-friendly climate and what that looks like when it comes to new venture creation.
