SUMMARY:RTP180: Small Business Ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:MAY’S RTP180 TOPIC | SMALL BUSINESS ECOSYSTEM\nPRESENTED BY RTI INTERNATIONAL\nInnovation. Education. Industry. These are powerful angles—and what Research Triangle Park is known for. At RTP180, speakers from our founding Universities, Park companies and the North Carolina community at-large, are called upon to speak passionately and authentically about what matters to them. The twist? They must do it in 5 minutes or less! \nWe ask our speakers to be intentional with their 300 seconds up on the virtual stage. What perspective of their industry are they able to share? What are their passions? What would our community be surprised to learn? What case studies in North Carolina are cutting edge? \nThis month, the topic is Small Business Ecosystem. A business ecosystem is the network of organizations—including suppliers, distributors, customers, competitors, government agencies, and so on—involved in the delivery of a specific product or service through both competition and cooperation. The idea is that each entity in the ecosystem affects and is affected by the others, creating a constantly evolving relationship in which each entity must be flexible and adaptable in order to survive as in a biological ecosystem. You may attend this event thinking you know all there is to know about Small Business Ecosystem, but get ready to consider a different angle.\nOur Experts \nBrett Brenton | Forward Cities | The Aspiring Class\nBridget Harrington | Innovate Raleigh | TBD\nKrista Covey | First Flight Venture Center | Triangle Topophilia\nKelly Rowell | Council for Entrepreneurial Development | Entrepreneurial Landscape and some Positive Impacts of COVID-19\nAmy Bastian | NC Idea | Making Connections: Leveraging Support from the NC Entrepreneurial Ecosystem\nJustin Minott | Provident1898 | Thinking of the Business Ecosystem as a Living Organism\nOur Game Plan\nVirtual doors open at 5:30 p.m. for the preshow slides.
