If you have a penny and I have a penny and we trade them, we both still have one cent. But if I have an idea and you have an idea and we trade them, we each have two ideas.
Happy New Year! Let’s make 2012 the year of trading ideas here on Fiber KC!

In reply to: Nina Babich posted an update in the group Business Development (formerly Workforce Development): Draft Charge • Identify, connect with, and catalogue events and groups in the region that are developing ideas for […] ViewLooks pretty good. Disseminating the ideas is keeping the ideas moving until one or two or three really stick together and form a really great idea. Get ideas to build upon themselves.
A good piece to work from at our meeting this week.
