1 Million Cups announces Columbia and Lawrence outposts
The best reason to be late for work in Kansas City announced today that it’s going to pop up in a pair of college towns. The Kauffman Foundation’s 1 Million Cups, a weekly presentation from local startups, is launching Columbia and Lawrence programs on August 7.
Locally, the Wednesday-morning meetings at the Kauffman Foundation have become the place to be seen and for those in the startup and technology scene to network. Often they are standing-room-only affairs. Previously, the Kauffman Foundation had announced that 1 Million Cups will start in other Midwestern big cities, including Des Moines, Houston and St. Louis. Columbia and Lawrence will bring the total cities hosting 1 Million Cups meetings to 12.
