Happy August VenCaf Community! School is starting back up, summer is starting to wind down but, Venture Cafe is only getting hotter!

So let's get into the speakers this week that were talking about their effort in doing just that.

What a week in St. Louis, VenCaf Community. We hope everyone is safe and healthy after the storm that rolled through. What a switch up from last week, Missouri will always keep us on our toes.

Thank you to all our speakers & community members who spoke, volunteered or just arrived at Venture Cafe for this monthly thematic programming. Without further ado, let's get into What's Next?!: Movement, Management & Money

Another hot one in the city VenCaf Community however, the show must go on! This week we are continuing with our "What's Next?!" Theme by hosting our gathering titled, Finances, Functional Medicine & The Future. This gathering was focused on those topics, with key speakers alluding to what looks to be the new breakthrough insight or knowledge in those respective fields and how we can all tap into that. We learned about the importance of managing your businesses expenses, how healthcare is more than just pharmaceuticals and how AI could be beneficial or detrimental to our community. Now that you know what to expect, lets get into it!

Happy Friday VenCafe Community! We had a fantastic event yesterday by the name of What's Next: Getting To A World Without Cancer.

We heard from a host of doctors that are well versed in the differing cancers and the research they're conducting to combat it. Let's get into what you might've missed!
