Gigabit City Summit: Local Edition

To ensure our community possesses a strong sense of how we build the social  and civic impact side of the innovation ecosystem, it is critical we continue to broaden involvement in the Kansas City metro among interested city governments, organizations, businesses, entrepreneurs, and community groups that drive innovation.

This one-day event will provide Kansas Citians the opportunity to learn about what’s happening now, what’s on the horizon, how you can become involved, and a sneak peak at the main event happening August 1-3.
