The Startup Village is designed to provide direct interaction between creators and investors. Lectures that are are setup for early-stage startups will round out the conference days.

Tippmann says Everywhere Else Cincinnati is on track to see similar attendance. He is excited to see how the event unfolds in its new location. Cincinnati was chosen because of the vibrant entrepreneurial community, numerous accelerators and great venture capital firms in the area.
