Creating Startup Junkies Jeff Amerine

Creating Startup Junkies focuses on the unique proposition of building sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystems in Unexpected Places. Arkansas, and many other states and communities, are well-positioned to inspire and empower entrepreneurs and innovators through the intentional cultivation of talent, a collaborative culture, engagement of their local community, and the capitalization of early-stage ventures. Creating Startup Junkies outlines this genesis through knowledge, anecdotes, tools, and a framework to transform your community and to create your own team of Startup Junkies.




In Creating Startup Junkies, you will:




Discover the Four Pillars of sustainable ecosystem building and how to apply them in your own community.




Read stories and anecdotes about how other "Unexpected Places" have deployed and cultivated these pillars to build sustainable venture ecosystems.




Learn to use the Venture Ecosystem Building Canvas to assess your own community against the Four Pillars in order to build a plan for long-term success.




Receive valuable tools, insights, and anecdotes that will fire your imagination, fuel your actions, and enable your success.
