2016 Rural Business and Innovation Summit

We would like to invite you to be our guest at the Rural Business and Innovation Summit September 14^th and 15^th. KCEDA is a proud sponsor of this 2-day conference focused on the challenges and opportunities facing rural businesses.

We’ve helped bring Janet Ady to the event as a keynote speaker on the first day. Janet Ady’s passion is business-to-business marketing and economic development. As president of Ady Advantage, she has led marketing initiatives for a wide range of organizations. Ultimately, her work helps to strengthen existing businesses, enhance the quality of life, attract new and expanding businesses, and retain and attract talent.  Janet’s background is in market research and strategy development. In that capacity, she has conducted over 2,500 in-depth qualitative interviews with business and technical decision-makers across a broad swath of businesses. Her knowledge of multiple industries allows her to provide value to individual businesses as well as communities and regions targeting specific sectors.  Janet consults on many aspects of economic development marketing, including agribusiness strategies, rural economic development strategies, marketing planning, economic development branding, and websites.
