Steve Neighbors interview: Business incubator getting started in downtown Carson City

Here is an interview I did with Steve Neighbors, Hop and Mae Adams Foundation trustee and president of the Carson Nugget, talking about the new business incubator. Sorry, it took awhile to get the video up. Neighbors talks about how the foundation bought the old Stewart Title building in downtown Carson City and plan to locate the much-talked-about business incubator there. He also mentions they are looking at other locations to put other incubators to help people start new businesses.
