Traction Thursdays

Traction Thursdays peer and technical support group for all entrepreneurs in the Fairfield/Jefferson County area with an emphasis on supporting the development of the Southeast Iowa Food Web. Traction Thursdays is supported by a Small Business Administration Rural Development Grant through Newbo Co, a non-profit in Cedar Rapids which supports entrepreneurship, education, and innovation. Alex Taylor, Director of the Iowa Startup Accelerator, provides free technical assistance through the SBA grant. Kelly Prickett, Regional Director of the Indian Hills Small Business Development Center also provides support for Traction Thursdays entrepreneurs.

We meet every week from 12-1 at the Fairfield CoLab, 101 N Court, Fairfield, Iowa.

All entrepreneurs or aspiring entrepreneurs are welcome to attend. Each meeting features a guest entrepreneur who shares their vision, plans, experience, and needs with the group.
