Mario is back in Missoula!!! Stay tuned. – IdeaMensch – 4 guys, 48 states, 1 epic road trip to awaken entrepreneurship across America

"We all have ideas," said Mario Schulzke, the instigator of this adventure. "My belief is that as entrepreneurs, the one thing that connects us is how we are bringing them to life.

The cross-country road trip is a quintessential American experience. Whether you are on the run from the law, battling conformity in a psychedelic school bus, or in search of love, powerful things can happen on the open road. Six months ago, a group of four guys embarked on an epic journey to awaken the entrepreneurial spirit from coast to coast.

This experiment is called IdeaMensch http://ideamensch.com/ and it is "a road trip for people with ideas." Packed into a Honda Element, the team visited 48 states and held events at every stop along the way. They held these events anywhere that was available, including startup co-working spaces, wineries, and even an old mill. In each location, a handful of local entrepreneurs would speak on how they brought their ideas to life.
