Our presenters this month are:

Keweenaw Boat Tours
Captain Jason provides a boat tour of the Keweenaw Waterway and adjoining shorelines of the Keweenaw peninsula. Learn more about his plans for this summer!
 

STEMPOWER
STEM-based careers have a gender gap, with few girls entering the field due to discouragement. But there's hope with STEMPOWER - an innovative solution that offers reusable, functional STEM learning kits to bridge the divide. Let's encourage more girls to pursue their dreams in STEM!

About 1 Million Cups

Created by the Kauffman Foundation, 1 Million Cups is a free entrepreneurial program designed to support entrepreneurs to connect and network within their own community for resources such as equipment, talent, space, and ideas. The audience listens to a pitch and then provides insight regarding new ways to think about one’s business and offers invaluable feedback from the customer and stakeholder perspective. 

In keeping with the Kauffman vision, the atmosphere is supportive and friendly. 1 Million Cups dubs itself as more of a “dolphin tank” than a “shark tank.” Businesses that are younger than five years old are invited to apply to present. 

1 Million Cups is a fun way to stay connected to community, think about innovative ideas, and to find out about and support entrepreneurship in our area. Events are free and open to the public. Coffee is provided.
