Might it make sense to focus it on work: how to create jobs and increase incomes via entrepreneurship and small business. How do we develop our local talent and enable our talented people to capitalize on their creativity, knowledge, and skills? 

“Work” was a general topic of Venture that did not get as much attention as the other topics. It is a really critical general issue for our community, especially with the County Mayor wanting to close the BDC. 

I think we would get some very powerful and useful insights from the community if we asked and listened.

What to you think? Bad idea? Good idea? Thoughts about how and where to do this and who to engage? 

Also, please spread the word about the dialogue session on Monday.
