• On the other side of the country, Indiana's hosting a stop on the America's Seed Fund Road Tour on July 16, and it's a pretty big deal for tech startups and entrepreneurs. It's all about connecting innovators with federal funding opportunities - we're talking billions in early-stage funding. You'll get to meet with federal agency reps, learn about SBIR/STTR programs, and even have one-on-one meetings if you play your cards right. Seats at this event are limited. The cost to attend is $20 and includes coffee, lunch, and a happy hour.

• The Governor's Small Business Summit is coming to Galveston on July 18, 2024.

The summit will feature various sessions and networking opportunities, running from 9 AM to 2:30 PM at Galveston College. Registration fee is $20.

COOL FINDS

• London's independent jewelers are riding a wave of popularity thanks to hit shows like House of the Dragon. Designers like Jessica De Lotz are creating bespoke pieces for TV, leading to fan requests for replicas. Meanwhile, Islington-based Stephen Einhorn is crafting signature pieces for Hollywood stars, including a unique stag beetle collar for Charlize Theron. This trend is providing a welcome boost to small businesses after recent challenges, with the expansion of film studios like Shepperton in Surrey promising continued opportunities. It's a prime example of how screen exposure can create new markets and customer relationships for niche craftspeople.
