Earlier this month the Cerner Innovations Campus played host to Kansas City’s Startup Weekend, a global affair (accomplished locally in major cities) that centers on sharing ideas, forming teams and launching startups. The intense 54-hour event focuses teams on building a web or mobile application, which could form the basis of a credible business.

Wilderness Brewery surpassed what might be the greatest hurdle of any startup: raising capital. In honor of the brewery raising $41,099 through its Kickstarter campaign, fellow Kansas City startup Red Nova Labs is hosting a party on Nov. 18 to celebrate the achievement.

A new iOS game called Mystery Ball hit the App Store on Nov. 4, and that night Red Nova Labs celebrated its first game release with an all-ages launch party.

As a self-funded startup, Red Nova Labs currently relies 100 percent on revenue for team growth. Thanks to recent success, Red Nova Labs has increased the size of its marketing department to 12, a staff that consisted of just two people in early 2010.
