CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA (March 10, 2022) — EntreFEST returns to Iowa City this summer. The two-day conference celebrating the spirit of entrepreneurialism and innovation will take place in person June 9–10 at notable downtown Iowa City venues, including Englert Theatre, the Graduate Hotel and Film Scene.
For more than a decade, EntreFEST has offered business professionals from across the Midwest an opportunity to come together, share ideas and own their success.
The annual conference — which includes keynote talks, breakout mentoring sessions, and celebratory networking events — is best known for its lineup of visionary speakers. Past keynotes include Ben and Jerry’s co-founder Jerry Greenfield, marketing icon Seth Godin, and UX expert Melissa Perri.
“We’re excited to be back fully in person for 2022,” says NewBoCo Events Coordinator, Jourdan McChesney. “The beauty of EntreFEST is that professionals from every level of business — from interns on up to the C-suite — get the chance to hear new ideas and be heard themselves. While we’re proud to have offered a stellar virtual event the past couple of years, we’re ready to return to the intimate experience we’ve worked hard to cultivate.”
Organizers have dropped the ticket price by $100 to make the sessions more affordable to students and up-and-coming professionals. Attendees can also take advantage of Early Bird pricing ($99), available until March 21.
“We’re committed to making this year’s EntreFEST our most accessible yet,” says McChesney. “For anyone who can’t afford a ticket, our team will work with you to secure a discounted rate that works for your budget.”
