Energizing Entrepreneurs:  Charting a Course for Rural Communities

“The book behind the website,” Energizing Entrepreneurs is a joint creation of the RUPRI Center for Rural Entrepreneurship and the Heartland Center for Leadership Development to present communities with a rich compendium of research, experience, stories, and tools about making entrepreneurial efforts happen in small towns and communities throughout rural America.  The book can be used as an every day, hard copy reference for people working within their communities to bring about positive, sustainable economic change.  Our goal is to make this information broadly available to all regions.  Book owners can be in constant touch with updates from the field in terms of practice and research as the companion website will be a dynamic tool that will grow as our knowledge base grows.
