On Saturday, June 14th, LaunchMemphis held its inaugural Boot Camp for entrepreneurs. Nearly 20 passionate entrepreneurs attended the day-long event held at EmergeMemphis. They saw presentations on various areas of starting a business such as: Business Plan Development, Marketing, Technology in Small Business, Finance/Accounting, Legal Considerations When Starting a Business, and Moving Forward.
An extended lunch provided an opportunity for attendees to meet with presenters and gain valuable feedback on their business ideas. Participant response for this “fantastic opportunity” was great and ranged from calling the $25 registration fee a “steal” to unanimous agreement that they would definately recommend the LaunchMemphis Boot Camp to other entrepreneurs.
Currently there are plans to hold another boot camp in 4-6 months, but no final date has been selected yet. Please stay tuned to this space or contact Chris Allen at chris@mercurylaunchpad.com for more information.

- Andrea Valenzuela (Business Plan Development)
- Lori Turner (Marketing)
- Sridhar Sunkara (Technology in Small Business)
- Jason Brink (Finance/Accounting)
