**Join The Axelson Center for Nonprofit Management at North Park University for a panel discussion on entrepreneurship, innovation, and how nonprofits can learn and implement around these ideas.**

**Tuesday, February 13 · 12 - 1:15pm CST**

Too often, nonprofit leaders have narrow conceptions of revenue-generating strategies and never consider the world of entrepreneurship and the possibilities that it might offer for our organizations.

Join the first Axelson Access program for 2024 which will bring together [Dr. Denise E. Williams](https://www.metrostate.edu/about/directory/denise-williams), Professor of Management and Entrepreneurship at Metropolitan State University, [L. Brian Jenkins](https://www.entrenuity.com/bios/l-brian-jenkins), Founder and President of Entrenuity, and [Paul Hawkinson](https://www.northpark.edu/faculty-staff-directory/paul-hawkinson/), Associate Professor of Business Strategy and Finance at North Park University, in a conversation to stretch our notions about entrepreneurship and what it has to do with nonprofit organizations.

In this interactive panel discussion, hear stories, have myths we hold punctured, and explore challenges and strategies for new methods of revenue generation.
