Were you part of the beginning of a revived spirit of entrepreneurism in Pensacola?

If you were part of EntreCon Pensacola's first day, you were among more than 200 people who heard practical advice, inspirational messages and the nitty-gritty details of what it takes to start, build and sustain a business.

The seminar, sponsored by the University of West Florida's Center for Entrepreneurship and the Studer Community Institute, took place at the historic Rex Theatre in downtown Pensacola. It continues Friday, Nov. 6.
