This is the question Bunker Labs is dedicated to answer. Join us for Flywheel Cafe this month as we talk with two veteran professionals, Mike Keating (Ambassador, Bunker Labs) and Kyle Lingafelt (Co-Founder, Old Armor Beer Company) who are passionate about entrepreneurship and bettering their communities. In this inspiring session, Mike will share about the mission and resources of Bunker Labs, a nationally connected network with a local presence and a community of entrepreneurs waiting for you to join them. Then, hear from Kyle Lingafelt as he shares his experiences founding a veteran-owned business, being in on the ground floor of Kannapolis’ revitalization, and lessons learned along the way. Generating large scale economic development starts on Main Street (or in this case, West Avenue) and we’re excited to talk with two organizations that have already begun inspiring others to join the cause. Key Takeaways:-Finding avenues in a broader entrepreneurial ecosystem to connect with resources and programs. -The importance of identifying and engaging in community with like-minded entrepreneurs. -Understanding tactful ways to grow your business for the intention of leaving a legacy and bettering your greater community, your neighbors and yourself.
