A year with Dayton startups

December 29, 2016

It has been a year for the books for the Dayton community. The entrepreneurs of this great city have been working their fingers to the bone getting their businesses off the ground and ready for the next step. They are focused on improving themselves, growing their businesses, and are feeling a shift in the neighborhood to entrepreneurship.

We have accumulated our very best blog posts from the past year into one. These blog posts highlight our community members, businesses, and pieces on the startup scene in the Dayton region. Check it out and reflect with us on the successes of our friends over the past year.
