1 Million Cups (1MC) is a simple way to engage entrepreneurs in our local communities around the world. Each month, the 1MC program offers two local entrepreneurs an opportunity to present their startups to a diverse audience of mentors, advisors, and entrepreneurs. Presenters prepare a 6 minute educational presentation and engage in 20 minutes of feedback and questioning after they present. Entrepreneurs gain insight into possible ways they can improve their businesses, gather realtime feedback, connect with a community that truly cares about their progress, and walk away feeling like they have advanced their business. Whether this is through passively listening or deeply engaging with the entrepreneurs, there is much to learn every week from these dynamic and diverse communities. The program takes place every 1st and 3rd Wednesday mornings from 8:00-9:00am at the Nest Coworking, 820 SW Adams, Suite C, Peoria, IL 61602. Join us at the next event on our Facebook live stream, or Zoom or in-person. We look forward to meeting you there.
