Dooley to keynote event celebrating work of entrepreneurial teams

News Release: 

Jennifer Dooley, founder and principal with Dooley & Associates, will be the keynote speaker at the Launch Box Growth Accelerator Super Send Off event 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. June 4 at the Madrigrano Auditorium in the Conference Center at Gateway Technical College’s Kenosha Campus.

The event marks a celebration of the 12 weeks of work done by six entrepreneurial teams working as part of Gateway’s Launch Box Growth Accelerator Program to make their business dreams a reality.

Each team will also “pitch” its business idea and story to the audience.

“It’s a celebration, but it’s also a way for the teams to show how far they’ve come through telling their business story to a live audience,” says Kristin Niemiec, Launch Box manager. “Our hope is that these entrepreneurs continue to work on their businesses to grow them.”

The accelerator was one of 50 Small Business Association-winning accelerators out of 800 applicants nationwide to receive a $50,000 award to provide business accelerator services to startup businesses.

The event is free and open to the public. To register, go to training.gtc.edu
