What’s The Big Idea?!

Rapid Growth's Not Your Average Speaker Series returns in February with a look at big ideas and how they can be turned into reality.

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Rapid Growth’s Not Your Average Speaker Series is back for 2012 with our very first on Wednesday, Feb. 15 at Wealthy Theatre.

Have big ideas but no idea what to do with them? A business, an initiative, an event, all of the above — constantly swimming around in your head? This might be just the event for you.

You’ll hear from people who have put ideas into practice or have helped others with their ideas, both successfully (and unsuccessfully). They’ll talk about how they were inspired, where they turned, how they built momentum, built up support and how they got through tough times.

Panelists include:

Steve Frazee – TedXGR, GR Collective
Aaron Schaap – The Factory Co-Working Environment, Elevator Up, Startup West Michigan
Kimberly Fogg – Global Sustainable Partnerships and 5×5 Finalist
Tim Streit – Huron Venture Partners (V.C.)

Moderated by Tami Vandenberg of The Meanwhile Bar and The Pyramid Scheme.

Come to learn, ask questions and share your experiences.

Wealthy Theatre doors open at 5:30 p.m. Refreshments available for purchase, bar privileges for CMC members ($12/year).

Admission is FREE and open to the public. Please RSVP below:
