Northeast Kansas Enterprise Facilitation (NEKEF) is a nonprofit organization which offers free and confidential business coaching in Northeast Kansas. The group includes over sixty volunteers from five counties with a passion for the success and sustainability of entrepreneurship in our rural Northeast Kansas region.

What they do
The NEKEF board employs a full time Enterprise Facilitator who gives intensive, one-on-one assistance to any aspiring or existing entrepreneur, educating him or her in the “Trinity of Management”, a concept that teaches each entrepreneur how to put a successful business and a business team into place.
