Hello Reader,

I’ve been working on something special for those of us who care deeply about entrepreneurial ecosystems.

Next week, I’m launching a new blog series: The Future of Ecosystem Building. Each month, I’ll sit down with ecosystem builders—practitioners and thought leaders—to ask one big question: What’s next for our field?

I've been working on this for over four weeks, so for you, my loyal subscribers, here's a little sneak peek:

We’re kicking things off with Chris Heivly—co-founder of MapQuest, longtime Techstars leader, and one of the most influential voices in our space.

Keep an eye on your inbox on Tuesday, Sept 16. You’ll get:

• An in-depth interview with Chris about the future of ecosystem building (and if I get this video editing figured out, even some video content from the interview!).
• A free downloadable guide with practical lessons from his approach (created just for you!).

I can’t wait to share it with you!

In camaraderie,

Anika
