Business for the Unengaged Summit

Saturday, March 2, 2019, at Compass Christian Church 2600 Hall – Johnson Rd, Colleyville, TX 76034

Problem: The last unengaged are often in locations resistant to all but business. So how do we create a network that can get the right people (entrepreneurs) in the right places? The summit is not intended to provide context-specific solutions, but rather to build the conversation and the networks needed to follow where the Holy Spirit will lead us across many contexts.
