Creating a thriving Startup Community
Topeka Startup Community
The Topeka Startup Community is an ecosystem for connectivity, resources, training, and real business opportunities for local entrepreneurs and small businesses. We're building a culture of openness and information exchange across industries. A creative community of entrepreneurs, freelancers, professors, investors, officials, and mentors.
Building an entrepreneurial ecosystem, piece by piece.
Entrepreneurs need access to resources to scale their businesses and add real value to the community. Omni Circle gives new and existing founders access to infrastructure, specialized legal and accounting services, suppliers, and mentors with the specialized knowledge base required to grow.
We're creating sustainability for new startups by stitching together the supports that usually live scattered across a city, and putting them all in one place.
