Entrepreneurs are constantly innovating and creating in order to make their product stand on top of the rest. Sometimes these pushes for innovation can lead to developing neighborhoods into creative powerhouses such as Silicon Valley. In this episode of the Startup Hustle, Matt and Matt are joined by CEO of Keystone Community Corporation, Kevin McGinnis. Keystone Community Corporation is pursuing an Innovation District in Kansas City, which could mean more innovation and educational and occupational opportunities for those in low-income neighborhoods. By supporting low-income neighborhoods, the quality-of-life in these neighborhoods can also be supported.
