Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Rural America
Putting the words innovation and entrepreneurship in the same sentence as rural America may be to some an unlikely combination. Surely innovation is something associated with glossy high technology campuses in metropolitan suburbs, rather than sleepy small towns and remote counties? And anyway, don’t successful entrepreneurs need a critical mass of skills, knowledge, markets and capital, attributes not usually found in the hills and hollows of rural America?

Becky, thank you for Small Biz Survival. And thanks for coming over to the Center for Rural Affairs Blog for Rural America. I appreciate your comments on my “Solution from Within” post. Perhaps we can offer each other some guest blogger posts from time to time about rural development, entrepreneurship and the like. Anyway, thanks again. I truly appreciate your blog.
