Build What Works: A Lunch and Learn for People Who Want to Turn Ideas Into Real Businesses

Powered by Sprocket & the Greater Owensboro Economic Development Corporation

Got a business idea, but not sure what to do next? Join us for a free lunch and learn designed to help you avoid the most common mistakes people make when trying to turn an idea into a business. We’ll walk through the foundational principles of business model design—and show you how to save time, money, and stress by starting smart. 

You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes look at a proven program designed to help entrepreneurs move from idea to real-world traction.

The Greater Owensboro Economic Development Corporation (GOEDC), in partnership with Sprocket, will host Build What Works, a free one-hour lunch and learn for aspiring entrepreneurs on Wednesday, July 16, from 12:00 to 1:00 PM at the Old National Bank Building, located at 123 West Fourth Street in downtown Owensboro.

This event is designed for individuals in the Owensboro area who are exploring business ownership or seeking to turn a promising idea into a real venture. Attendees will hear from startup coach John Truitt, Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Sprocket, and walk away with actionable tools from the Market Fit Lab, a program that helps founders validate their ideas, better understand their customers, and build the foundation for sustainable growth. Lunch will be catered by Fetta Pizza, and space is limited to 30 participants.

Participants will also receive information on how to apply for the next Owensboro-based Market Fit Lab cohort launching later this year. The event is free to attend, but registration is required at sprocketwky.com/rsvp.
