Every entrepreneurial journey begins with a single step. The hardest step is often the decision to venture into the unknown world of becoming an entrepreneur.

On February 18 join Dave Monks and Jerod Millirons as they share that the idea of taking their passion for craft beer from a side project at home to full-scale commercial production wasn’t something to take lightly. In 2014 timing, space and opportunity fell into place for the duo, and they started Iron Monk Brewing Company.

Despite having more than 30 years of brewing between them, their first year has included both setbacks and successes. Hear Monks and Millirons discuss their journey and learn tips on how you can forge your own path toward becoming a successful entrepreneur.
