The annual Midwest Partnership Dinner will take place this evening at the Lake Panorama National Conference Center in Panora. The night will feature a dinner, a guest speaker who will be Wild Rose Entertainment President Tom Timmons, and awards. Midwest Partnership CEO Sarah Gomez says the group has begun shifting their focus more to helping entrepreneurs and start-ups, and a new award this year reflects that dedication, “Beginning last year, we started focusing more on entrepreneurs, providing them more resources and highlighting their successes in the region, so what better way to recognizing their success than with an award.”
