Tucked amid a crowd of about 80 people at Think Big Partners Tuesday, Kansas City artist Jasur Rakhimov swiftly sketched a conversation unfolding before him on immigration and entrepreneurship.
A cartoon-style artist, Rakhimov stopped by Startland News’ fifth Innovation Exchange that focused on immigration and entrepreneurship to not only share his talents but also to capture the discussion. Below is the sketch that Rakhimov produced based on the event, which was presented by Startland and Think Big.
A big thank you to Rakhimov for stopping by and for sharing his gift. If you missed the conversation, there’s a podcast and photo gallery below — enjoy!
