Ryan Kopf's Blog

Last year, I really wanted to help support the cosplayers attending and participating in the Cosplay World Crown, and so I had a bunch of snacks set up at Anime Midwest's cosplay contest for the cosplay participants.

Most anime fans like me get their anime on the internet. Whether it be from Crunchyroll, Netflix, or somewhere else on the web, all anime fans are connected by the internet. Anime Midwest is coming up soon and we've connected with hundreds of attendees via the internet, for example.

This is Ryan Kopf, the president of AnimeCon.org and your local nerd and anime fan. Anime Minneapolis is coming up this weekend and we're all hands on deck with the convention, shaping up to be a great time and I look forward to seeing some awesome people here.

As I started organizing my anime conventions back in 2010, I've been navigating the entrepreneurial waters for a while now. One thing I've realized along this journey is the undeniable power of networking.

Before I explain why the minimum wage is stupid, I want to start with an example. General Mills - popular cereal maker of Cheerios, Wheaties, Lucky Charms, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, etc - made 4 billion in profit last year and still plans to do yet another 20% price increase on its cereals, blaming "inflation".
