The entrepreneurial spirit is growing throughout our city, and our friends at Delaware Technical and Community College have a weekly gathering where everyone is welcome to experience that growth.

The gathering is called 1 Million Cups and it was started by the Kaufman Foundation. Here's the description from the foundation:

1 Million Cups (1MC) is a simple way to engage entrepreneurs in communities around the world. Each week, the 1MC program offers two local entrepreneurs an opportunity to present their startups to a diverse audience of mentors, advisors, and entrepreneurs. 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. The audience also learns a great deal from the presentations. 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.

Here's Del Tech's Paul Morris with more:
