I’m in Kansas City today looking forward to attending the Kauffman Foundation’s Economic Bloggers Forum. I met some great thinkers and friends at the inaugural conference in ’09 and I am sure this year will only be more of the same.

Stream the presentations live today (Friday, April 1 2011) from 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. (CST)

The Kauffman foundation explains:

The Forum brings together select economics, finance, and technology bloggers for an event in Kansas City to discuss key policy issues and cutting-edge research on topics related to entrepreneurship, innovation, and growth. It will feature a dozen talks by well-known bloggers, including Tyler Cower, Virginia Postrel, Felix Salmon, and Dean Baker.

As many of you know, we have worked closely with The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation to create our Entrepreneurship Research & Policy Network (ERPN). Earlier this year, they held the first Economics Bloggers Forum and I was fortunate to be able to participate.  It was a wonderful event and a great opportunity to meet and learn from some very intelligent people, a few of which are included in the Renewal of Entrepreneurial Capitalism video below.  Other than my friends at the Kauffman Foundation inserting the wrong blog URL for me, I was very impressed with the quality of the videos and the professionalism of the staff.
