Wunderkammer Company and Start Fort Wayne are pleased to announce a deep partnership, effective immediately, with the goal of further stabilizing and expanding Northeast Indiana\u2019s creative and entrepreneurial communities.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Wunderkammer Company executive director Daniel Swartz will also be taking the helm at Start Fort Wayne, \u201cWhile we have an established relationship working within the creative community and neighborhood development in South Central Fort Wayne, we are very excited to further work with our region\u2019s entrepreneurial community, said Swartz, \u201cThis community has been growing with our city, but has a great deal of potential.\u201d  Wunderkammer Company has recently amended its mission to support \u201cnew ideas and new community\u201d to complement this stewardship and collaboration between Northeast Indiana\u2019s creative and entrepreneurial communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dave Sanders, Founder and outgoing Board Chair of Start Fort Wayne, has been integral to this transition and is excited about the possibilities as well, \u201cWe have worked hard to bring greater awareness and support for startups and entrepreneurs in northeast Indiana for 5 years. As the economy changes both locally and globally, community support for emerging businesses is crucial. This includes flexible spaces like Atrium, which will be more important than ever in the new telecommuting age that is emerging.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sanders continues, \u201cWe are excited and thrilled to have Wunderkammer take on this next chapter of shaping the entrepreneur community. Dan and his team have shown great success in building and connecting with diverse communities, and this talent combined with our mission of startup growth and support are the perfect combination of what our city needs right now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While daily operations of Start Fort Wayne, its downtown coworking space Atrium, and Wunderkammer Company will be largely unaltered, the organizations are excited to explore the many ways that these communities can work and grow together.  Both organizations urge the community to look for new projects and programs in the near future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
