The KC Connector Project is a unique effort to recognize, support and connect the many people doing great things in the Kansas City community to further the education of young people and develop a supportive community for entrepreneurs and new businesses!
The Kansas City Connector Project is a pilot study, funded by the Kauffman Foundation, and models how resource gaps can be closed primarily through leveraging the “human connection” that already exists in a community’s social structure. The goal of the project is to assess and then advance educational achievement and entrepreneurial success by revealing and then leveraging the organic growth of social networks in the educational and entrepreneurial ecosystems in the greater Kansas City area.
