About this event We partnered with Futurpreneur to host a series highlighting successful rural entrepreneurs, and all of the resources available to other rural entrepreneurs! Kicking off our first session is David Saulnier, Founder of JD Composites. David is a shining example of the innovations that are grown within rural entrepreneurship. During this session, he will dive into a brief history of JD Composites, and talk about the benefits and opportunities that lie within rural entrepreneurship.
