Pipeline reveals fellows in 2014 class
Pipeline reveals fellows in 2014 class
During a Thursday celebration at its Innovator of the Year event, Pipeline Inc. announced its 2014 entrepreneurial fellowship class.
The class includes 13 entrepreneurs from Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska in a wide variety of fields.
"It's exciting that our third regional class once again represents a powerful mix of industries while hailing from three states in the Midwest," Pipeline CEO Joni Cobb said in a release. "It's also gratifying to see how excited the rest of our membership is for our family to expand. Now it's time to get to work."
To be accepted in the program, the fellows underwent a demanding application and interview process with a judging panel comprised of Pipeline members, mentors, investors and entrepreneurial experts.
Launched in 2006, Pipeline is a group of entrepreneurs who help build high-growth companies in the Midwest. Each year, Pipeline welcomes about a dozen new members to participate in its rigorous yearlong business development program, which features workshops, mentorship and networking among Pipeline members. The program culminates each year with the Innovator of the Year event in Kansas City.
