<div class="description">
<p>The Social Innovation Forum provides a facilitated, empowering time and space for proactive community members to unite, learn, gain inspiration, and create innovative strategies that address social and environmental problems in Portland neighborhoods. This month, the forum turns its focus to “caring.” Speakers, including Charles Lewis of Ethos Music and Amy Sacks of the Pixie Project, represent successful social entrepreneurs and people in the community who are leading community change; Workshops will review innovative trends in elevating the value of caring and how to apply these trends to your work and passion.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, caring is something society doesn’t value much. We value numbers, and data. And we almost think caring is a weird thing to say. What does it even mean? This forum will bring caring to the forefront, and talk about how it's a wonderful thing to care, and to say you do. Do we talk about that on our websites? Do we ask others if they care? Do we acknowledge when they do? How do we help people care? When we care, do we act?</p>
<p>Workshops: Engaging Volunteers Effectively, Efficiently, and Appreciatively led by Hands on Portland, Developing a Caring Economy led by Real Wealth of Portland, and Caring--Inspiration to Implementation led by the Giving Tree and Community Warehouse. Guest speakers include Jane Green and Melissa Owens of Children’s Cancer Association, Amy Sacks of the Pixie Project, and Charles Lewis of Ethos Music.</p>
<p>The forum is your chance to talk with others in the community who share your concern. And if you have an idea ready to turn into action, you’ll find experts ready to help you get started. That’s all in keeping with the goal of the Springboard Social Innovation Forum: unleashing the potential of “ordinary” citizens to address local challenges with lasting solutions.</p>
<p>Admission $5 (includes a light supper). To learn more about Portland-based nonprofit Springboard Innovation or to find out about future forum topics, visit <a href="http://www.springboardinnovation.org">www.springboardinnovation.org</a> or contact: <a href="mailto:Katherine@springboardinnovation.org">Katherine@springboardinnovation.org</a></p>

<p>Health Information Technology Gets $19 Billion Boost, Comparative Effectiveness Research Gets $1 Billion</p>
<p>The new economic stimulus bill is an example of the priority and urgency the new Congress and Obama Administration gives to reforming the health care system. As part of the stimulus package, signed into law by President Obama, $19 billion is now dedicated to transforming the patient record to an electronic format and adopting standards, to be developed by Jan 1, 2010.</p>
<p>Practitioners will receive incentives to use</p>
<p> Heath Information Technology (HIT) standards that must be developed by Jan. 1, 2010.<br>
Physicians and other practitioners will be eligible for up to $64,000 in incentive payments over several years for the meaningful use of an electronic medical record for patients. By 2015 all physicians will be required to use electronic records in their practice.
Hospitals will also be eligible for $1-9 million in incentives for meaningful EHR adoption.
This stimulus package is expected to create new opportunities for entrepreneurs to provide technology and services to healthcare practitioners and organizations. It will also focus on developing the health IT workforce that institutions like OHSU are already doing, creating new career opportunities in this area.</p>
<p>TIE Oregon has partnered with OHSU and lined up a great panel of healthcare industry professionals and entrepreneurs who have pioneered the development and use of Electronic Health Records, who will provide insights into this industry and how entrepreneurs can capitalize on this opportunity.</p>
<p>If you are looking to get into this field this is your opportunity to network and learn!</p>

<p>The first wave of Agile software development challenged waterfall project management methodologies and traditional Quality Assurance. The next wave of Agile challenges on-premise software through what is known as Software-as-a-Service (or SaaS).</p>
<p>Using Sun Tzu's timeless classic "The Art of War" as a framework, Founder/CEO of Cubic Compass, Mike Leach, presents principles and practices for creating an Agile SaaS organization that challenges the status quo of software development and delivery.</p>

<p>If you plan to raise money in the coming year, come to this all-day workshop to learn what it takes to be investor ready. (And yes, it is quite possible for Oregon startups to raise money - but it takes the right preparation!)</p>
<p>Our presenters will include Steve Morris, Executive Director of OTBC, and Dennis Powers, Chair of OEN's Portland Angel Network. Dennis and Steve have helped a number of Portland-area startups close investment funding. And to give you an extra advantage, you'll meet a number of local investors.</p>
<p>We'll review the preparation required to get serious attention from investors, and significantly increase your odds of obtaining investor funding. At the end of the day, you will understand how to:</p>
<p>Verify that your business concept can provide a sufficient return for angel or venture capital investors</p>
<p>Validate your market - be sure you're building something people want</p>
<p>Validate your pricing - if you build it, will they pay for it?</p>
<p>Develop financial projections</p>
<p>Protect your intellectual property</p>
<p>Reduce the market, technology, finance and team risk to present a strong investment opportunity</p>
<p>Develop a concise, compelling elevator pitch</p>
<p>Late in the afternoon, we'll be joined by several angel and venture capital investors. We'll break up into small groups so everyone has a chance to get feedback from investors on their business concept, ask questions -- and hear the feedback other entrepreneurs receive too.</p>
<p>And thanks to sponsor Credit Suisse, we'll wrap up with a reception where you'll have more chances to mingle with Portland area investors.</p>
<p>Increase your odds of getting funded. Join us on June 2 to learn how to get investor ready.</p>

<p>Yes, you've seen outlines for a business plan. But how do you actually sit down and write one? The answer is: you don't. Not as the first step, at least. First, you have a fair amount of homework to do.</p>
<p>Homework such as defining your target market; sizing and segmenting that market; developing a competitive strategy; validating that your service or product fills an unmet need; value pricing your product. And the list goes on.</p>
<p>In this seminar, OTBC Executive Director Steve Morris will review the different objectives you might have for writing a business plan, and the homework you need to do before you write the plan - and then will review what goes into the plan. You'll leave with a detailed action plan for preparing to write a business plan -- and with an outline of what should be in the plan. The good news: once you've done your homework, writing a business plan isn't that difficult!</p>
<p>Who should attend: any entrepreneur or small business owner who needs to develop a strategy and a plan for launching or growing their business.</p>

<p>The idea of an intelligent electricity network is being promoted by many as a way of dealing with the increasing problems of global warming, energy independence and electric grid resilience. This so called “smart grid” will create opportunities for new technologies and businesses which will emerge to satisfy the demands for improved communications, smart appliances, distributed power generation, demand response, transportation electrification and many more applications.</p>
<p>To help entrepreneurs and innovators in the Portland area learn more about smart grid opportunities and collaborate with others the TiE Oregon is hosting an event with industry experts and capital providers who have an interest in growing smart grid businesses.</p>
<p>Panelists include:</p>
<p>• Bill Campbell Principal at Equilibrium Capital
• Bobby Kandaswamy, Investment Director, Intel Capital
• Jeff Hammarlund, Adjunct Associate Professor and Senior Research Fellow at PSU's Mark O. Hatfield School of Government and the Executive Leadership Institute.</p>
<p>By attending this event you will hear about the policies shaping the smart grid movement, learn about various technology and application opportunities and meet others who are already working in the smart grid or have an idea that could turn into a new business.</p>

<p>Your product or service makes sense to you - but will it be compelling to your target customers? Entrepreneurs and small business owners often go with their gut feel - but that can be misleading. Not all of your target customers think the way you do!</p>
<p>How do you make sure that the demand is there, before you spend a lot of time and money developing and deploying a product or service? Validating the market first decreases your risk, and gives you a much better understanding of how to approach your market with the most effective messaging and marketing.</p>
<p>OTBC executive director Steve Morris will take you step by step through the process of validating your market, so you can be more confident that you are addressing an unmet need, and that customers will actually be willing to pay.</p>
<p>Who should attend: any entrepreneur or small business owner who needs to develop a strategy and a plan for launching or growing their business.</p>

<p>You've defined, sized and segmented your market. You've validated the market to verify that your product or service does serve an unfilled need in the market, and customers are willing to buy it.</p>
<p>But how much will they pay? Many companies, large and small, set prices by making an "educated guess" based on gut feel and experience. But there's a better way to price: price your product according to the value your customers perceive.</p>
<p>How do you value price? At this seminar, OTBC executive director Steve Morris will explain how you can use analytical techniques to gain a much better understanding of how customers value your product or service, and how much they are willing to pay.</p>
<p>Who should attend: any entrepreneur or small business owner who needs to develop a strategy and a plan for launching or growing their business.</p>

<p>Building a strong business future in Washington County is the focus of a new business incubator located in downtown Hillsboro: Green Sustainable Business Accelerator (GSBA).</p>
<p>GSBA offers a new approach to successful entrepreneurship. Instead of fruitless job searches, sending out dozens of resumes and experiencing the reality that a job might be unattainable in the present economy, we offer hope and help to those who would like to take a different approach by creating their own business. Those who embark on that venture need a strong support network and mentoring to be successful. GSBA offers that and more.</p>
<p>The Kauffman FastTrac® LaunchPad initiative is being offered in response to the many workers who have lost their jobs and businesses that are struggling due to the current economic environment. It is a proven fact that entrepreneurship plays a key role in getting America back on the road to recovery. Over 300,000 entrepreneurs have participated in FastTrac® programs.</p>
<p>To apply for the program, or to receive more information, please visit: <a href="http://www.gsbaccelerator.org/future.html">http://www.gsbaccelerator.org/future.html</a>

<p>Slashdotters' outrage meters were pegged again recently when somebody noticed that HP had gotten patent #7,523,150 last April. But what is the patent really about? And how did HP get it?</p>
<p>IP attorney Dave Madden of Mersenne Law LLC will present a quick overview of the patent process and then discuss the HP patent itself. It's very short (only 5 pages) and it's about an area of technology that's familiar to many engineers (binary representation of numbers in a computer), so it's a good vehicle to get into a discussion about the patent system, rather than the intricate details of a complicated invention.</p>
<p>Join us at the OTBC offices at noon on Thursday, February 4, 2010, for a brown-bag lunch, discussion and Q&A.</p>
<p><b>Location</b>: OTBC, 12725 SW Millikan Way, Suite 300 (reception in Suite 101)

<p>Mind Your Own Green Business! Ecopreneur 20.10</p>
<p>Entrepreneurs looking to start a green business or transition their existing business will gain valuable insight from Ecotrain Media Group founder, Kevin Pile. He will share 12 years of ecoprenurial pursuit and the trials and tribulations he has faced.</p>
<p>This seminar presents a holistic understanding of corporate sustainability. We combine years of sustainable development advocacy with the documentation of Ecotrain Media Group’s grass-root, “green,” start up business. We understand the misconceptions of green business and the difficulty in finding the necessary resources for developing a green business.</p>
<p>This unique four-hour seminar empowers you to get ahead in the blooming green economy with a solid understanding of the green industry, the green market, green business operations, and green business certification processes. Entrepreneurs will be able to answer the questions they have had on starting a green business, and how to implement a sustainable business strategy.</p>
<p>Each attendee will receive the Ecotrain Green Career Guide Almanac.</p>

<div class="description">
<p>As an early stage entrepreneur looking for the first round of funding, one of the most daunting tasks may be determining the valuation of your company. In this workshop, we will cover the basics of valuing a seed or launch stage company, and answer some questions, such as:</p>
<p>Who sets the valuation - the company or the investor?</p>
<p>What does pre-money and post-money valuation mean? How do I calculate it?</p>
<p>How do I value my company if we don’t yet have revenues?</p>
<p>How do investors determine the valuation?</p>
<p>How have valuations changed in the economic downturn?</p>
<p>We'll explain the terminology, demystify the math and explain some of the ways that valuation is set during the funding process. There will be plenty of time for Q&A, so come armed with your questions and be ready to participate in a lively discussion about valuing early stage companies.</p>
<p>$30 for OEN Members; $70 for non-members.</p>

<p>You're starting a company and have multiple founders. A number of questions come up:</p>
<ul>
<li>What exactly is founders stock? How is it different from options?</li>
<li>How is it different from investors' stock?</li>
<li>How do you decide how much stock each founder will receive?</li>
<li>Do founders purchase their stock?</li>
<li>How much do they pay?</li>
<li>Should the stock vest?</li>
<li>What happens if a founder leaves?</li>
<li>What happens if you add more founders a few months down the road?</li>
<li>How do founders get diluted when investors buy stock?</li>
<li>How much stock do founders typically have when a company gets acquired or goes IPO?</li>
</ul>
<p>We'll answer those questions and more at this event. OTBC exec director (and former startup CEO) Steve Morris and Ernie Bootsma, an emerging-business attorney with Ater Wynne will provide an overview of how stock works, and answer your questions.</p>
<p>As an extra incentive - all attendees to this event will receive, courtesy of the Synergy Consulting Group, a stock structure / growth spreadsheet that will help you evaluate different valuation/growth/dilution scenarios. The spreadsheet is a $29.95 value!</p>
<p>So join us for this seminar. You'll learn a few things, and walk away with a very useful tool.</p>

<p>Whether deliberately or accidentally, corporate culture starts developing the day you form your partnership, and blossoms as the company grows. Emphasis on a healthy corporate culture and assuring "fit" with each hire can lead to unprecedented success with happier, more productive employees...and customers.</p>
<p>Sara Davey-Schmidt will lead the discussion at the brown-bag lunch event. For the past 15 years, Sara has worked with many, many clients to help them identify talent who are not only qualified for the positions in their organization, but are--more importantly--a cultural fit with the company's core values and approach to business. In this brown bag session, Sara will provide some tools to articulate your own values and strengths in order to determine the Business Partner who is right for you. The benefits: Your partnership will thrive, a healthy corporate culture will develop deliberately, and your business will evolve into an entity authentic to you and your Business Partner.</p>

<p>PDX11 is proud to welcome John Tortorici, CEO of Chart Solutions and Craig Froude, Former President of WellMed and Executive VP of WebMD to lead Roundtable #4 – From Bootstraps to Boardroom! Attendance is limited, and RSVP only.</p>
<p>On Monday, May 14th from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m, we will hold our fourth of the 2012 PDX11 Roundtable Series. This session’s topic is “Bootstraps to Boardroom” – a firsthand account of how Informedics and WellMed were started, matured, and acquired by Mediware and WebMD respectfully. We think you will find these two success stories interesting and informative.</p>
<p>Taking place at Puppet Labs 411 Northwest Park Avenue #500. Doors will be open at 5:00 p.m. for pre-discussion networking, and we will start promptly at 5:30 p.m. As a community effort to support the software segment's economic growth, the Roundtables are at no cost to attendees.</p>
<p>The Portland startup scene is full of activity, talent, and new concepts – if you’ve got these but need a candid, firsthand roadmap on applying solid strategy to your business idea, this Roundtable’s for you. Refreshments will be served, and there are a limited number of seats. Please RSVP to Tamsen Galloway to reserve a spot at the Roundtable.</p>
<p>About the PDX11 Roundtable Series:</p>
<p>The PDX11 Roundtable Series is an answer to the startup community’s request for a roundtable-style, firsthand interaction with software leaders who have expertise in specific topics. These will be held on a regular basis throughout the year. For more information about the PDX11 Network, please visit <a href="http://www.pdx11.org">www.pdx11.org</a></p>
<p>Please RSVP to <a href="mailto:pdx11mentornet@hotmail.com">pdx11mentornet@hotmail.com</a> to reserve your spot at the roundtable!</p>

<p>According to Business Incubation Works, "Business incubators reduce the risk of small business failures. Historically, NBIA* member incubators have reported that 87 percent of all firms that have graduated from their incubators are still in business." In this webinar series, OEN will explore the ups and downs of starting a company in an incubator.</p>
<p>What really happens within start up incubators? Do they help companies become successful or at least get over certain challenges? What type of companies and people find the incubator experience to be a positive? Are there downfalls to going through the experience? These are just a few of the questions you can ask Sheetal Dube who has started his successful company in an incubator.</p>
<p>Want to submit your questions ahead of time? Email them to Larry Williams at <a href="mailto:larryw@oen.org">larryw@oen.org</a> for the next session.</p>

<p>Online Startup Summer Camp for entrepreneurs is brought to you by OTBC, OEN, TiE, Startup Weekend, SAO, and OAF. This event is one of the (optional) weekly meetups.</p>
<p>This summer, you can take your idea and go through the steps to launch your startup and build an investor pitch, while getting feedback and meeting lots of people.</p>
<p>FORMAT: We'll post weekly online videos each of which covers a key task that's one aspect of preparing for an investor pitch. Week by week, you'll build a pitch deck, while developing and validating your business model.</p>
<p>Participants can ask questions online. In fact, you can do the entire boot camp, online, on your schedule (we know schedules are a challenge during the summer).</p>

<p>It's no secret that the cloud is growing - and fast. But where is it going in such a hurry? What can we expect (and prepare ourselves for) in the years to come?
Join us on Thursday evening (7/19) on the gorgeous Wieden + Kennedy rooftop for drinks, networking and a special discussion on the future of the cloud. The short discussion will be led by cloud evangelists Ben Kepes (@benkepes) and Krishnan Subramanian (@Krishnan), and moderated by TechCrunch's enterprise reporter, Alex Williams (@alexwilliams). From Hobbits to heterogeneous infrastructure, we'll take a look at where the cloud is going and what it will look like when it gets there.
Stick around after the talk, mingle, and catch the breathtaking Portland sunset like you've never seen it before. </p>

<p>According to Business Incubation Works, "Business incubators reduce the risk of small business failures. Historically, NBIA* member incubators have reported that 87 percent of all firms that have graduated from their incubators are still in business."
In this webinar series, OEN will explore the ups and downs of starting a company in an incubator.</p>
<p>What really happens within start up incubators? Do they help companies become successful or at least get over certain challenges? What type of companies and people find the incubator experience to be a positive? Are there downfalls to going through the experience?
These are just a few of the questions you can ask Daniel Clancey who grew his successful company in an incubator.</p>
<p>Want to submit your questions ahead of time? Email them to Larry Williams at <a href="mailto:larryw@oen.org">larryw@oen.org</a> for the next session.</p>

<p>Professionals in any industry work with tools as they set prices for their products or services: operating costs, ramp-up, S-curves, break-evens, ROI goals, and customer value. We understand the concepts and apply them carefully. How, then, do we end up fighting price wars, disappointing customers, and performing below goals?</p>
<p>For a start, consider what’s missing in that list of tools: anything that takes competitive dynamics into account. That’s where war games and simulations come in, and that’s what we’ll see in action on July 26th.</p>
<p>The Oregon Chapter of the Product Development and Management Association (PDMA) invites you to its July Learning and Networking Event. In this highly interactive and thought-provoking program, our experienced speaker will discuss and lead us through pricing decisions, pricing mistakes, and pricing war games. We will participate in simulations that shock, amuse, and enlighten as we ponder how to price effectively.</p>
<p><strong>Acknowledgement</strong></p>
<p>A special thanks to the Oregon Technology Business Center (OTBC) for hosting this event.</p>
<p><strong>Speaker</strong></p>
<p>Mark Chussil, Founder and CEO of Advanced Competitive Strategies.</p>
<p>Mark has conducted hundreds of war games and worked with thousands of strategists in Fortune 500 companies on six continents and helped them make or save billions of dollars. He is a highly rated speaker who’s written three books, chapters for five others, and numerous articles. He also has earned a patent (another is pending) for simulation technology. A 35-year veteran in competitive strategy, Mark earned his MBA at Harvard and his BA at Yale.</p>

<p>The one and only Dave McClure is coming to Portland and who knows what kind of trouble he's going to get us all into. He's heading to Portland for, "Geeks on a Train," an 8-hour train ride from PDX - VAN for the 3rd Annual GROW Conference where he's speaking.</p>
<p>But first, he's going to take some time Monday night to meet with us all at Urban Airship and shed some light on something. We'll give you more details if we get them but as of now, we know there will be beer, McClure, and some awesome PDXers. Thanks to Urban Airship for hosting and providing the booze!</p>

<p>It’s back-to-school time!
With high school graduation rates falling, student achievement lagging and new Common Core Standards on the way, K-12 education reform is a hot topic around the U.S. and in this election year.</p>
<p>What’s exciting is that a new generation of “edupreneur” entrepreneurs has emerged to disrupt education in innovative ways with new solutions that are transforming the way we learn, teach, communicate and share information. And some of them are right here in Oregon!</p>
<p>Join us this back-to-school season at our Sept. 12th, OEN PubTalk™ “Back-to-School with Edupreneurs” and learn how some of Oregon’s most innovative education startups, including EdCaliber, Membean and Sublime Learning, are changing the face of education. Bill Kelly, a veteran of the education startup world, will be our moderator.</p>

<p>Crowdfunding sites, like Kickstarter.com, have set the entrepreneurial world ablaze with their democratizing effect in the project funding realm. You’ve read about crowdfunding successes like Pebble, Kickstarter's biggest crowdfunding success (the project raised over $10 million). Now find out how you can use these same sites to get YOUR project off the ground or accelerated into the marketplace.</p>
<p>Join us for a special 1-hour presentation to find out more about:</p>
<p>How crowdfunding works</p>
<p>Various platforms available to entrepreneurs to raise funds or even find investors (beyond the more well known sites like Kickstarter and IndieGoGo)</p>
<p>How to create the “perfect pitch” for crowdfunding sites</p>
<p>How crowdfunding campaigns can be used to road test your product offerings and help you build a rabid fan-base</p>
<p>We’ll introduce you to the “Money 4 Something” step-by-step DIY workshop and resource for indie artists, innovators, inventors and entrepreneurs who need outside funding to launch or complete their projects. The information in the workshop is geared toward creative innovators looking for an alternative, community oriented way to get the word out about, and fund, their projects through crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter.com.</p>
<p>We’ll even give you a proprietary tool that you can use to craft your own crowdfunding campaign on your own—just for attending and learning how you can take advantage of these amazing crowdsourced fundraising mechanisms.</p>
<p>If you have any questions before the event, feel free to contact the presenter, Adrienne Fritze at <a href="mailto:adrienne@artfulphoenix.com">adrienne@artfulphoenix.com</a>, or by calling her at 503.349.6075.</p>

<p>Investors rarely fund a startup that is at the "idea" stage. So how does an entrepreneur fund an early stage startup? At this 2 hour workshop at OTBC you'll learn how to leverage sources of funding ranging from microloans, grants and seed funds to angel and venture capital investors. Will also cover funding strategy: when to raise how much from where - and why.</p>

<p>Besides employee payroll, "Office, Industrial, or Retail Space" is usually a company's highest business expense. Yet many entrepreneurs put this on the back burner and deal with their space needs at the last minute.</p>
<p>This workshop will cover what you need to know when your company is growing and you are ready to take the next step for new space or ready to expand/relocate from your current location. This session will help you plan, as well as begin thinking of future space needs so you do not lose your leverage with landlords or get thrown into a space that will cost you and your investors money that could and should be used towards other business expenses.</p>
<p>Topics covered in this session will be:</p>
<p>Timeline for the real estate process</p>
<p>Lease terms</p>
<p>Typical length of leases and expectations for Tenant Improvements</p>
<p>Costs the Landlord should pick up, NOT the company</p>
<p>Costs other than the rent you should expect</p>
<p>Typical steps during the real estate process</p>
<p>Presenter: Josh Schweitz</p>
<p>Josh Schweitz is in the 13th year of his commercial real estate career, and is dedicated to providing the best service and value for his clients. During his career, he won the Commercial Association of Realtors' "Rookie of the Year" award, was listed as one of Oregon Business Magazine's 2003 top ten "Up-and-Coming Brokers," and ranked among Costar's top 20 "Power Brokers."

<p>What is Startup Riot Portland SHOW? It's one day where thirty startup entrepreneurs present for 3 minutes each and then answer questions for 3 minutes. We expect some deals will get funded during the day. Plus it's affordable to attend and we make sure only the right people get in the room (sorry, no non-sponsoring service providers). What's not to like?</p>

<p>Accelerator resident Comic Rocket would like to invite you to an evening of game play and conversation on Wednesday, January 16 from 6:30--9:30pm in the Mt. Hood Room. We had a great time doing this last month, so let's do it again!</p>
<p>We're bringing our game libraries, including Risk, Blokus, Magic: The Gathering, Ricochet Robots, Order of the Stick, and many more games. Please bring anything you want to play too!
Game play starts at 6:30 so everyone has time to get dinner beforehand. We'll provide snacks and drinks; you can bring some to share too if you really want to.</p>
<p>Bring friends, and we look forward to seeing you on the 16th!</p>

<p>To close funding from investors, you first must accomplish some key milestones. When it's time to pitch investors, you must convey the investment opportunity and what you've accomplished in a compelling way that motivates the investor to want to learn more.</p>
<p>In this OTBC/OEN workshop you'll learn what headway investors expect that you've already made, and what topics they want to learn about in a pitch. And you'll learn about effective pitch techniques, and effective pitch tactics. In the interactive portion of the workshop, you'll develop and delivery the front-end of an investor pitch - one of the hardest pieces: a description of the problem or unmet need, and a description of your solution both of which are concise, compelling and motivating.</p>

<p>Treating the three categories of IP (trademark, copyright, and design patent) as individual strategies is one way of protecting your IP however these same three categories can be used synergistically to create a cohesive IP policy that will provide greater protection overall.</p>
<p>Learn from Craig Morris, Managing Attorney for Trademark Outreach United States Patent and Trademark Office as he kicks off the Trademark, Copyright, and Design Patent Boot Camp on February 14th. Craig will give a general overview identifying the differences between the three categories as well as domain names and business registrations. He will discuss the basic process and strategy for protecting each, review basic considerations for each, and discuss how they should be used collectively for maximum protection.</p>
<p>Additional Topics:
•To register or not to register
•How to enforce?
•Importance of selecting a strong mark, that is, both federally registrable and legally protectable
•Whether an attorney should be used when doing the initial search
•Potential grounds for the USPTO to refuse registration
•What may happen if another trademark owner believes it has stronger rights
•How to avoid scams perpetrated by companies the request fees for services not required by the USPTO</p>
<p>Concluding Craig Morris’s overview there will be three breakout sessions which will focus on how each category applies to one product, i.e. iPod, Nike shoes, Coke bottle, etc. The outcome of the sessions is to demonstrate how a design patent can and should be linked to trademark and copyright.</p>

•What strategies can be employed to broaden and maintain coverage through small design iterations?
•Strategies for extending coverage for functional features through the use of decorative features
•Aspects of the design patent process that can tie in trademark or copyrights and how this can provide enhanced coverage of the product</p>
<p>Trademark Session:
Leads: Jay Rafter, Stoel Rives LLP and Nate Moceri, Stoel Rives LLP
•How best to integrate trademark into the actual product design
•Can the design itself be a trademark?
•Explanation of product configuration trade dress
•What strategies can be employed to broaden coverage and maintain coverage over time?
•Aspects of trademark that can tie in design or copyrights and how this can provide enhanced coverage of the product</p>
<p>Copyright Session:
Leads: Jay Smith-Hill, Lane Powell LLP
•Now that you have a design and trademark, how do you tell the world about it?
•How can the use of copyrights extend the reach of a design over multiple media outlets (website, marcom, YouTube videos, etc.)?

<p>Dates/Times: Thursday, March 14, 2013: Networking @ 5:30-6:30 PM; Seminar 6:30-7:30 PM</p>
<p>Abstract:</p>
<p>A sprint is just one example of the use of cadence or rhythm to make a process more efficient. Once you understand the fundamentals of cadence, you can apply cadence in both agile and traditional projects to reduce overhead and coordinate activities. Learn how to determine the ideal sprint length for your project, find out when continuous integration won’t help, and discover other ways that cadence can benefit your project! This talk explores the science behind the concept of a “project heartbeat” using 2nd-generation Lean thinking.
Bio:</p>
<p>Kathy Iberle is an expert at producing high-quality software and high-tech products using practical methods. She worked in a variety of fields during her long career at Hewlett-Packard - electronic instruments, medical products, printers, and Internet applications – and she has seen development from a range of perspectives: software developer, quality engineer, test lab manager, requirements manager, agile coach, process improvement expert. Kathy has a deep knowledge of the underlying theory behind agile and Lean development, combined with a flair for pragmatic applications, which has enabled her to successfully extend software agile development methods into areas where most people think “agile just can’t work”.
Kathy reviewed technical papers for the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference (PNSQC) for many years, served as co-chair of PNSQC’s Program Committee in 2009, participated in the invitation-only Software Test Managers Roundtable for five years, and has published regularly since 1997.

<p>Join us for this OTBC workshop at Ater Wynne's office in the Pearl.</p>
<p>How does the process of closing an angel round actually work? What are the steps you go through? How do you prepare? How are angel deals typically structured? How do you propose and negotiate terms? How does an investment actually close? What legal issues do you need to understand? How does the "sales" process work - from introduction to close?</p>
<p>Closing an investment can be a confusing, "black box" process when you haven't done it before. We'll remove the mystery be discussing the above issues and more at this 2 hour workshop at the Ater Wynne office in downtown Portland.</p>
<p>Ater Wynne is providing snacks and beverages! We hope you can join us to remove some of the mystery of closing an investment.</p>

<p>“Where should innovation start?”</p>
<p>The majority of business leaders do not recognize the value of IT in innovation.... Meanwhile, some companies make use of technology trends, including big data, social, and mobile. How does data, development, and design influence the maturity of tech innovation? How does one area influence the other two and where do great ideas begin?</p>
<p>Join us as we walk through a number of innovative case studies of innovation. Some started with data, moved to development and were later marketed to the masses. Others started with development and marketing, leaving design as an afterthought. The products are interesting, and the individual approaches are fascinating.</p>
<p>Innovation in Motion members will be allowed to attend this panel at the InnoTech Conference for FREE. RSVP on this Meet-up page and your name will be add to the guest list for this panel at the InnoTech Conference.</p>
<p>Speakers:</p>
<p>David Steinberg, VP of Business Alliance from the Internet Marketing Association</p>
<p>Gene Ehrbar, Director of Mobile Solutions from ISITE Design</p>
<p>Sponsors:</p>
<p>• CrowdCompass - Mobile apps for conferences and corporate meetings.
• CorSource - Turning ideas into deliverables with strategic consulting, development services and technical staffing.
• Technology Association of Oregon - dedicated to bringing together some of the brightest minds in the technology industry.</p>

<p>Does the word "taxes" have you reacting with a blank, questionable stare?</p>
<p>When making a list of priorities, startups tend to list taxes right above, "getting a plant service for the office." As with most startups, there may be a significant period of time before the business becomes profitable. However, there are business decisions you make today that can greatly affect your income tax situation in the future. These decisions include what type of entity your company wants to be, where your company wants to be located or even how your company obtains sales. Also, there are other types of taxes besides income, e. g. sales, payroll and B & O, that can distract you from the beginning. Andrew Meyers will help get you through the startup "tax maze" so that you can more effectively focus on growing your startup and be well positioned for long-term success.</p>
<p>Speaker: Andrew Meyers
Andrew joined the Perkins & Co tax department in 2005 and is a member of our high-tech/emerging growth and real estate practice groups.</p>
<p>Andrew has diversified experience managing tax engagements in a wide variety of companies in several industries, including distributors, manufacturing, technology and real estate. His experience includes working with all types of entity structures; however, much of his time is spent assisting our corporate clients engaged in the manufacturing of technology related products who file in multiple jurisdictions. This gives him a wide range of knowledge in areas related to state/local nexus and filing requirements, revenue recognition issues and research & development credits, as well as other challenges businesses confront in this industry.</p>
<p>Prior to joining us, Andrew spent a year and a half as an auditor at a mid-size local firm in Portland where he served manufacturing, technology and privately held businesses.</p>
<p>Andrew holds a Bachelor of Science in Accounting as well as Economics from Portland State University. He is a licensed CPA and a member of the AICPA and OSCPA. He is also a member of YPOP, a networking organization for young professionals in the Portland metro area.</p>
<p>When: Wednesday, May 15</p>
<p>Time: 4:00PM - 6:00PM</p>
<p>Where: Hillsboro Chamber of Commerce, 5193 NE Elam Young Parkway, Suite A, Hillsboro, OR 97124</p>

<p>The program will begin with a review of Honda’s user research and design research process while developing new applications for the company’s 3-D heads-up display prototype. It will be a fairly candid talk showing lessons learned and how the team changed focus mid-way on design direction after learning about new things while designing. This included focusing more on the driver’s primary task instead of secondary tasks to help create a more engaging (“kick-ass”) experience for the driver.</p>
<p>About the Speaker
Victor Ng Thow Hing is a Principal Scientist working at the Honda Research Institute in Mountain View, Calif. He has worked on projects related to digital human modeling, intelligent systems, human-robot interaction, and now human-machine interaction in the car.</p>

<p>From tech to food and onto science, our region's entrepreneurs are developing ideas and companies that are making a difference from both an economic development standpoint and the betterment of the society we live in. The journey from an idea or concept to actually getting your company up and running is never an easy one. It's one that is filled with ups and downs, victories and defeats, but the one thing that all of these entrepreneurs share is a passion for what they are trying to build or create.</p>
<p>OEN's Entrepreneurial Summit is your opportunity to discover and learn about the incredible collection of entrepreneurs, across all industries that are making things happen in Oregon.These entrepreneurs all have a passion and belief in what they have built, but their journeys will both inspire and spark ideas within you. D'Wayne Edwards with Pensole Shoe Design Academy, Anna Martens with FreeRangePDX/Leatherman and Mat Ellis with Cloudability are just a few of the great speakers that are lined up for the event.</p>
<p>As many of these entrepreneurs will attest, they couldn't have done it on their own. To that end, after the talks have completed, OEN is hosting an"Entrepreneurs Journey" trade show. The trade show will include the organizations, accelerators, universities and government resources that provide the support, mentorship and potential funding for entrepreneurs.</p>

<p>Portland has hit the radar: Business Week has noted the stunning growth of our tech scene. Local start-ups are actually being funded fueling awareness and rivaling Portland’s larger competitors (like San Francisco).</p>
<p>The fuel for the fire? Accelerators (PIE: Portland Incubator Experiment) in partnership with leading brands, technology innovators, and trend setting local agencies (Wieden+Kennedy); Upstart Labs is helping grow local companies Chirpify and Celly; and the Nike+ Accelerator is powering TechStars and Nike.</p>
<p>PAF’s GET STARTED gives you a front-row seat by bringing together the leaders of PIE, Upstart and Nike+ Accelerator. Unearthing the magic behind growing startups, they’ll outline how advertising and digital agencies can and are providing guidance and support to bring companies to life. You’ll learn how your agency/company can participate in this trend and how you’ll benefit and grow from your own tech chops alongside your startup partners.</p>

<div class="description">
<p>A startup is an organization that is searching for a business model that works. It's critical to understand that a startup's business model is a set of assumptions - and those assumptions need to be tested, earlier rather than later! And earlier means before you develop the product or service! (But even if you've already started developing the product is still the right time to validate the business model!)</p>
<p>A 1 page business model canvas is an excellent way to capture the assumptions underlying your business model, so you can methodically test those assumptions. In this workshop, you'll learn about the lean startup approach, and be introduced to the 1 Page Lean Business Model Canvas, and discuss how you can use the canvas to test each assumption in the model. Then you'll work through a “hands on” exercise where you complete and present to the group a portion of your 1 page lean canvas. All participants will receive printed copies of the Lean Canvas to use, and will also be provided with a PowerPoint version of the canvas so they can continue to create canvases on a computer.</p>
<p>Who should attend: Anyone who is starting a business and has not yet developed and tested the business model for that business. This material and process is relevant for any startup - not just tech startups.</p>
<p>Presenter: Steve Morris
Steve Morris is the Executive Director of OTBC and the Managing Director of OregonStartups.com. He is a veteran of three start-ups, and has more than 25 years of management experience in the software, service, and semiconductor test industries at companies such as Hewlett Packard, Integrated Measurement Systems, Cadence Design Systems, Mentor Graphics, Credence Corporation and Teseda Corporation. He holds a B.A. in mathematics from Reed College and a Masters of Science degree from Carnegie-Mellon University Graduate School of Industrial Administration (now The Tepper School of Business).</p>

<p>Been toying with crowdfunding your latest project? This class provides an in-depth introduction to crowdfunding and will arm you with everything you need to know to launch your campaign on Crowd Supply, Portland's own crowdfunding platform. Come prepared with a project or two and we'll help you determine if crowdfunding makes sense for you and, if so, how to put together the campaign.</p>
<p>By the end of the second meeting, we hope several participants will be up and running with their own campaigns, though the class is also appropriate for anyone just looking to learn more. In addition to crowdfunding fundamentals, the class will also cover Crowd Supply in particular and how it compares to Kickstarter.</p>
<p>Cost: $20
This is a two session class that meets from 6:30-9:30 PM on the following Tuesdays: July 30th and August 6th</p>

<p>Crowd Supply's Director of Projects (and ADX member) Josh Lifton will share tips and tricks from the trenches of preparing, launching, and successfully funding your product.</p>
<p>This webinar will give you an overview of how you can use Crowd
Supply to launch a successful product campaign, from planning and production, to marketing and fulfillment.</p>
<p>Presenter: Josh Lifton, Crowd Supply</p>
<p>Josh received his doctorate from the MIT Media Lab and holds a
BA in physics and mathematics from Swarthmore College, which is to say he's devoted a significant amount of his time learning how to make things that blink. As head of Crowd Supply's project efforts, he is helping others launch successful crowdfunding projects. Prior to Crowd Supply, Josh worked in a variety of technology settings, from instrumenting thousands of audience members with custom wearable computers for a Cirque du Soleil performance to, most recently, serving as head of engineering at Puppet Labs.</p>

<p>TechFestNW (formerly known as PDXconf) is designed to celebrate interesting people who are passionate about technology. Who are building a better world. And who value craft over commodity.</p>
<p>The event takes place in conjunction with MusicFestNW, one of the largest independent music festivals in the US. Last year, MFNW attracted acts from up-and-coming artists to bands like Passion Pit, Dinosaur Jr, Silversun Pickups, and Girl Talk. While the inaugural tech event featured speakers from Flipboard, Betaworks, Walmart Labs, GigaOM, Shazam, and Spotify---as well as local favorites like Draplin Design Co, LAIKA, Chirpify, Simple, and Nike.</p>
<p>TFNW will take place September 6-8, 2013, with speakers the 6th and 7th and a hackathon on the 8th. Tech takes place during the day. And music takes place during the night. Creating a true festival atmosphere.</p>

<p>The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program is a highly competitive federal funded Research and Development (R&D) program that is a vehicle for small business to commercialize innovative cutting edge technology, processes, and/or methodologies within a myriad of categories and concentrations. However, the questions become where does my research fit; what are the factors that determine the category for the research submission; can I submit the proposal in more than one category or more than one agency?</p>
<p>More often small business and research professionals struggle with where their idea, concept, and/or product are best suited when deciding to submit an SBIR Phase I proposal. If a proposal is not placed in the correct agency, including the correct category the proposal will be rejected.</p>
<p>This must-attend Webinar focuses on assisting Principal Investigators (PI’s), Research Professors and other Research Professionals on determining where to submit their SBIR Phase I Proposal. Your expert presenter will examine the SBIR Phase I Programs at the National Institute of Health (NIH), National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Department of Defense (DoD) in order to obtain an understanding of the types of research is being funded and the intricacies of the various agencies and categories in order to assist the participants in aligning their research properly.</p>

<p>OEN’s Angel Oregon has been a key element in the funding and development of seed stage companies in Oregon since 2005 when the first investment award was presented. However, the program was only offered once a year. Due to an increasing demand on the part of entrepreneurs for access to capital, education, mentors, and other resources, OEN has responded by making Angel Oregon a year round program, starting with the new OEN Angel Oregon Fall Program. - See more at: <a href="http://www.oen.org/events/angel-oregon/?loggedin=true#sthash.IH5zFm3W.dpuf">http://www.oen.org/events/angel-oregon/?loggedin=true#sthash.IH5zFm3W.dpuf</a></p>

<p>So due to great interest and demand, Monica Enand and Randy Weber of Zapproved, will again be providing us with their unmatched founds focused sales training.</p>

<p>Learn how to grow a startup without investors (and why that's a good thing to do) from a startup that is successfully doing that today.</p>
<p>On Oct. 22 at OTBC, Ragav Satish and Micah Elliott, founders of Membean, will talk about their challenges and accomplishments in bootstrapping a startup into revenue, with no investor funding. There will be plenty of time for Q and A.</p>
<p>How do you start and grow a company without investor funding - and without being independently wealthy? How do you build a team when you have little or no cashflow? How do you fund development? How can you afford to grow the team with sales and marketing skills, when those additions have to be funded by revenue? Membean has done all of that, and is continuing to grow their business without investor funding.</p>
<p>We'll explore with the Membean founders Ragav Satish and Micah Elliott how they tackled some of these challenges.
Membean provides online vocabulary instruction with an Adaptive Reinforcement Engine that helps students retain what they learn. Their current focus is middle schools and high schools. Their customers include more than 180 schools.</p>

<p>"How to Pitch to an Angel or VC." Talk by Jim Huston, Managing Director, Portland Seed Fund and TiE Oregon Charter Member.</p>
<p>Attend TiE Pearl Pitch Club, a series of sessions where you can practice your pitching skills. Network with TiE members, mentors and other entrepreneurs. You are welcome to attend even if you don't plan to pitch.</p>
<p>TiE Pearl Pitch Club is designed as a supportive environment in which to try out your presentation - in front of a group of peers, including established entrepreneurs, and others just getting their start. Bring your pitches, with or without slides (bring your laptop to plug into the A/V system), and walk away with valuable feedback and coaching.</p>
<p>Following the Pitch Club session we will offer drinks and refreshments at the TiE Pearl Incubator, while we discuss feedback and mingle.</p>

<p>Ever wondered what it takes to be an entrepreneur?</p>
<p>The professional and personal challenges, the high and lows, the failures and the success?</p>
<p>Startup Weekend is a global grassroots movement of active and empowered entrepreneurs who are learning the basics of founding startups and launching successful ventures. It is the largest community of passionate entrepreneurs with over 400 past events in 100 countries around the world in 2011.</p>
<p>The non-profit organization is headquartered in Seattle, Washington but Startup Weekend organizers and facilitators can be found in over 200 cities around the world. From Mongolia to South Africa to London to Brazil, people around the globe are coming together for weekend long workshops to pitch ideas, form teams, and start companies.</p>
<p>All Startup Weekend events follow the same basic model: anyone is welcome to pitch their startup idea and receive feedback from their peers. Teams organically form around the top ideas (as determined by popular vote) and then it’s a 54 hour frenzy of business model creation, coding, designing, and market validation. The weekends culminate with presentations in front of local entrepreneurial leaders with another opportunity for critical feedback.</p>
<p>Whether entrepreneurs found companies, find a cofounder, meet someone new, or learn a skill far outside their usual 9-to-5, everyone is guaranteed to leave the event better prepared to navigate the chaotic but fun world of startups. If you want to put yourself in the shoes of an entrepreneur, register now for the best weekend of your life!</p>

<p>Fund raising for your start up can be tough. It's even tougher when you're trying to fund raise before you have a working prototype in customers' hands. Our usual advice: a working prototype is one of the prerequisites for raising a seed round.</p>
<p>But AutoAp Inc. CEO Mark Paul beat the odds by raising a substantial seed round with a user interface demo, but not a working prototype. How did he do it? He will reveal all in our Dec. 3 “Startup Stories” interview. So if your struggling with your funding plan, you're sure to pick up some helpful pointers at this event!</p>
<p>When: Tuesday, Dec. 3, 4pm</p>
<p>Where: OTBC, 8305 SW Creekside Pl, Beaverton, OR</p>
<p>Cost: $10</p>

<p>Should you get your child a Raspberry Pi for Christmas? This informal talk will address that question.</p>
<p>The Pi is targeted at kids and at $35 it sounds pretty good. However, there are keyboards, SD cards, monitors, power supplies and other hardware to consider. Furthermore, the Pi is not for the faint of heart. You get all of the capabilities of a Linux system at the cost of its complexity.</p>
<p>There will be two halves to this talk.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>One for elementary children using Lego WeDo robotics and Scratch.</p></li>
<li><p>The second targeting junior high or high schoolers and using Python to control a Vex robot.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>The goal of this talk is to introduce you to a couple of robots you can control with the Pi. It will give you an idea of whether you want to tackle this with your children or if you want to give it to yourself instead. You have to be comfortable with hardware and willing to learn Linux. It is easy to manage as long as you follow the happy path. It is designed for children but is not childproof like Lego Mindstorms. The Pi provides you an opportunity to reduce it to scrap with a misplaced wire or to change its software in such a way it takes a wizard to recover. But hay – it’s only 35 bucks and you can always reload the software.</p>
<p>This talk is for parents. It is ok to bring a child but I do not promise to engage them. It will not teach you how to master the Pi. It will get you started by showing you what it can do and pointing you to resources on the web. Everyone is welcome.</p>
<p>Speaker: Ed Epp, IEEE</p>
<p>When: Dec. 4, 6:30pm to 9pm</p>
<p>Where: OTBC, 8305 SW Creekside Place, Beaverton, OR Directions</p>
<p>Cost: Free</p>

<p>In the start-up world, legal issues are frequently identified but practical solutions are hard to come by. However, with a little bit of knowledge better decisions can be made early and there are more ways to succeed and fewer ways to fail.</p>
<p>There are many “checklists” for startup legal but most importantly a company must identify:</p>
<p>1) Ownership among founders / employees / investors</p>
<p>2) Entity selection</p>
<p>3) IP protection</p>
<p>4) Employee / Independent Contractor relationships</p>
<p>5) Tax planning</p>
<p>6) What to do when things go wrong</p>
<p>This month Leigh Gill of Immix Law will join YESpdx to present on the fundamentals of start-up law. Leigh started his career in finance and then spent a decade in software development before becoming an attorney. For more information on Leigh, visit <a href="http://www.immixlawgroup.com">www.immixlawgroup.com</a></p>
<p>As usual, there will be beer and snacks! Event co-sponsored by NedSpace and the Oregon Entrepreneurs Network (OEN).</p>

<p>Here's a great opportunity to learn from other startups.</p>
<p>PSU professor Charla Mathwick received feedback from more than 150 founders in the 2013 Oregon Founders Study. She has synthesized the results down to four distinct strategies reflected in the sample from the study across a range of 9 potential value proposition strategies. The results provide guidance regarding how to evaluate where a particular firm falls and what a founder might consider doing to strengthen his or her value proposition.</p>
<p>Charla would like to summarize these findings and get some direct founder feedback. The discussion will be relevant to any founder -- regardless of whether they participated in the study.</p>
<p>When: Feb. 20, 2014, 10am-11am</p>
<p>Where: OTBC, 8305 SW Creekside Pl, Beaverton, OR, 97008</p>

<h3><strong>Roadmapping: Best Practices for Determining "What's Next"</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>PDMA Learning and Networking Event</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>Thursday, February 20, 2014</strong></h3>
<h3><strong>6:00 - 8:00 PM</strong></h3>
<p>Your Oregon Chapter of the Product Development and Management Association (PDMA) - the folks who bring you ProductCamp Portland – and Pragmatic Marketing invite you to a February Learning and Networking Event featuring a special moderated panel focused on the challenges of product roadmapping.</p>
<p>Good Product Managers are the CEOs of their product. They have a vision, and communicate it effectively, for how their product will grow, evolve, and successfully meet its key objectives. The product roadmap is one of the product manager's key instruments for laying out this vision in more concrete terms, but it's inherently full of challenges. This session will tap into panelists experience to uncover best practices for road mapping including critical factors for feature prioritization, political considerations, and how best to communicate them internally and externally.</p>
<p>Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from three top local product executives on this compelling and challenging area of product management.</p>
<h3>Panelists:</h3>

<p>We often see headlines like these:</p>
<ul>
<li>"Verizon Investments Leads Funding Round in MobileRQ"
</li>
<li>"OpenSesame Lands $8M"
</li>
<li>"OnTheGo Raises 700K Seed Funding from Foundry Group's AngelList Syndicate"
</li>
<li>"AppThwack gets backing from In-Q-Tel"
</li>
</ul>
<p>If you are an entrepreneur pitching at pitch competitions and to groups of investors, an outcome like that can often seem like a pipe dream. You might think it's just a question of luck, or that you just have to have a lot of passion for your idea; but it takes the right combination of factors to make such deals happen.</p>
<p>The basic premise is obvious: investors want a return on their investment. But how do you get introduced to the right investor for your company? What is going to convince them that they will get a return on the investment? How do you negotiate the deal?</p>
<p>One great way to get answers to some of these questions is by hearing the stories of founders who have received funding in the last 6 months.</p>
<p>Join us for a panel discussion on closing a round of funding with the founders of the very same companies that featured in the headlines above!
Don't miss this opportunity to learn from these entrepreneurs' experience and meet and ask them your questions!</p>
<p>Our panelists are</p>
<ul>
<li>Tyler McKinley (CEO/Founder of MobileRQ,
</li>
<li>Josh Blank (SVP/Founder of OpenSesame),
</li>
<li>Ryan Fink (CEO/Founder of OnTheGo Platforms),
</li>
<li>Trent Peterson (Co-Founder of AppThwack)
</li>
</ul>
<p>The discussion will be moderated by Monica Enand (Founder/CEO of Zapproved, TiE Charter Member).</p>

<p>Early on, team compensation is likely to be in the form of ownership in the company. It's important to understand how that works. This seminar tackles these common questions: What is common versus preferred stock? How do you decide how much stock goes to each team member? What happens if a team member doesn't work out? How is founder ownership diluted when the company takes on investors? How do you minimize dilution? Can founders retain control? How do investors determine you company's value?</p>
<p>Included Tools: Stock (Capitalization) Spreadsheet for forecasting value and dilution.</p>

<p> RolodexPDX’s next event will feature speakers Shashi Jain, Jeff Martens and Special Guest Speaker Marco Salazar de Leon.</p>
<p>Shashi and Jeff, with their years of experience with entrepreneurial and intrapreneurial ventures, will share inside stories, advice about cautionary tales aimed at empowering, educating and inspiring attendees.</p>
<p>Marco, who is flying all the way up from San Diego to celebrate with us, is an expert in community management and online engagement. He will share tips, key concepts and implementable take-aways about leveraging your existing network and how to build an essential team and tribe around you and your projects.</p>
<p> Plus, it’s a birthday celebration… so there will be cake!</p>
<p>The overall formula is simple: Three short and engaging talks giving by speakers who share their wisdom with the crowd of entrepreneurs, makers, techies, business folks, investors, coaches, and go-getters. After that, the group splits into smaller circles for a quick master mind session geared at authentic connection. Then the crowd rejoins for munching on food and great networking that is actually effective and fun.</p>

<p>Angel investors will not fund an idea - especially not for a first-time entrepreneur. They won't even fund a business plan. Fortunately there are sources of funding available to the early stage entrepreneur. We'll talk about those in this workshop, and walk through a realistic early-stage startup funding strategy. So you'll know right up front what it takes to get funded.</p>

<p>Picture this: You're an investor with 30 minutes to get through a stack of executive summaries and business plans. Your goal is to find one with a story you can't stop reading. Each document has 5 seconds to make you care; if it doesn't, you reject it – Boom! – and pick up the next.</p>
<p>Back to reality: You're a founder, you need capital, and you have 5 seconds to tell a story that grabs investors by the eyeballs and forces them to read. You may be an engineer, but you need to write like your future depends on it.</p>
<p>Learn how to make your opening paragraph a compelling read in this hot seat workshop. Led by business writer Debra Hemminger, attendees will:</p>
<p>• Evaluate and revise first paragraphs</p>
<p>• Create a checklist of traits that make a compelling first paragraph</p>
<p>• Use the checklist on their own first paragraphs to create an action plan.</p>
<p>Bring the first paragraph of your exec summary to this event and get feedback from the group! Better yet, email your first paragraph to <a href="mailto:Debra@BeyondtheOutline.com">Debra@BeyondtheOutline.com</a> by May 8 with subject line "Hot Seat" to get even more feedback.</p>

We'll describe quite a few of the funding sources that you can leverage to build your startup, from loans, to grants, to crowdfunding, and then yes, even investors - and more.</p>

<p>Here at PIE, we like to think of our Demo Day as a community event. So we're always looking for ways to ensure we can get our awesome startup community together in person to take part in it. Although we've run out of room at our main location, we're pleased to announce that our friends at eBay have been kind enough to host a PIE Demo Day simulcast. And they have room for 100 folks to join them.</p>
<p>We invite you to join our hosts for PIE Demo Day, October 24, 2014, at the brand new eBay Community Lounge. Doors open at 1:30pm, presentations will begin at 2:00pm.</p>
<p>This year will feature presentations from our funded companies and highlights from our latest experiments. We'll also take a look back at five years of PIE and the amazing startups with whom we have had the pleasure to work.</p>
<p>Please RSVP</p>

<div class="description">
<p>Every third Thursday we hold our main Meetup at Hatch. The primary theme of our group is: Social Entrepreneurs - PDX: How we help each other solve business and social problems.</p>
<p>We consist of over 300 members of which 1/3 are business owners, or trying to start a business, 1/3 are freelancers that support small business, and 1/3 are folks with shared interests or who are networking.</p>
<p>We plan to hear five or six five minute pitches from social entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>Some nights we will hold Mastermind events where a specialist fields questions, other times we do Crowdsolving events where the attendees ask their questions or ask for help with a problem and the group provides feedback, ideas, connections, suggestions.</p>
<p>Overall, we are a fascinating group of highly motivated changemakers. Hatch is a great co-working space, so if you have not been there, this is a good time to check it out.</p>
<p>Cold beer and treats are always provided. Suggested Donation is $5 to $10</p>
<p>I look forward to seeing you there. If you would like to speak (not really a pitch, just casual information) about a local social enterprise or know someone who would, please contact me. (contact info is above)</p>

<p>It’s projected that within the next 15-20 years, half of America’s malls will shut down. JCPenney, Macy’s, and Sears are among the many retail giants that have recently announced fresh rounds of closures and layoffs.</p>
<p>So is brick-and-mortar retail dying? Though e-commerce platforms are increasingly vital in today’s retail marketplace, not everyone is quick to discount good ol’ fashioned brick-and-mortar stores. Join us at our March PubTalk to learn how startup companies are leveraging online and offline retail experiences to create more demand.</p>

<p>Please join us for the public launch of the City of Portland Early Adopter Program. This initiative seeks to better connect local Portland companies that can provide smart tech solutions with city bureaus needing improvements in operations, maintenance and capital projects. The public sector is a viable testing ground for innovations developed by the private sector, in particular those produced by early stage entrepreneurs. As the go-to resource for public and private interaction on cooperative projects, the Early Adopter Program will foster better information exchange and more efficient decision making between city departments and local industry.</p>
<p>At this event, you will:</p>
<p>Learn about City Bureaus and the innovation challenges that your company may help solve
Meet with city staff and discuss specific problem statements in a roundtable format
Introduce and promote your company
Discover how the Early Adopter program can be a resource for your company</p>
<p>We will be sending more information before the event on specific problem statements that bureaus will present for the roundtable sessions.</p>

<p>An ideal investor-entrepreneur relationship is not merely transactional. Taking on investors is a long-term commitment that, like any relationship, requires a foundation of communication, trust, and shared values and goals.</p>
<p>So, how do you not only win over investors, but keep them loving you? Join us at our April PubTalk to hear about the love story between Sseko Designs and Skyline Capital.</p>
<p>As always, the program will be preceded by time for networking and will include free appetizers and pizza. Registration begins at 5:15 p.m. The program will kick off around 6:00 p.m. with five-minute pitches from Jennifer Pereau of Rawdacious Desserts and Reggie Senegal of SnapLaces. We’ll then proceed to our panel and will wrap up at 7:00 p.m., including time for audience Q&A.</p>
<p>Cost: $10 for OEN members; $20 for non-members</p>

<p>OEN’s Angel Oregon Showcase is your opportunity to nurture breakthrough ideas, discover new markets, and make invaluable business connections. Join over 300 investors, entrepreneurs, and business leaders to get a sneak peek at Oregon’s most exciting up-and-coming companies!</p>
<p>This fun, fast-paced event will feature pitches from 12 entrepreneurs, who are doing everything from unobtrusively monitoring the elderly, to redefining the cast iron frying pan, to pairing up college study buddies.</p>
<p>You'll also hear from internationally acclaimed startup guru Ekaterina Walter, who will be delivering the keynote address. At the end of the day, we'll be announcing the winner of OEN's Angel Oregon Spring 2015 Investment Program. You'll get to see which of the three presenting finalists will walk away with the Big Check.</p>
<p>Of course, securing investment is not the only way for an early-stage startup to fundraise—to that end, you'll also hear from Ryan Grepper of the 'Coolest' cooler and other local entrepreneurs who have launched and run massively successful crowdfunding campaigns.</p>

<p>At this Westside PubTalk(TM) you'll learn about how SheerID navigated the challenges of startup fund-raising. Early in their history, the SheerID founding team attended a 3 month boot-camp at OTBC. Since then, the team has consistently grown the business, and funded that growth by raising approximately $9 million from angel investors and, recently, more than $5 million in venture capital funding. SheerID CEO Jake Weatherly will share some of the strategies and lessons-learned as the SheerID team raised funding and built the company.</p>
<p>The Westside PubTalk is sponsored by the City of Hillsboro, City of Beaverton, the Oregon Entrepreneurs Network and Beaverton’s Oregon Technology Business Center.</p>
<p>When: Wednesday, Nov. 4 with food and networking at 5 PM, the program at 6 PM
Where: Golden Valley Brewpub, 1520 NW Bethany Blvd in Beaverton
Cost: $15 fee includes food and one drink ticket</p>

<p><span><span><strong><span>Overview</span></strong></span></span></p>
<p><span>Over the last few years we have seen cybersecurity move from the realm of IT to the center stage. With mega breaches impacting every industry from retail, healthcare and government, institutions and businesses of all stripes and sizes are continuously under attack by increasingly sophisticated and well funded adversaries from around the world. </span></p>
<p><span>In this panel we will discuss what businesses should be aware of when it comes to cybersecurity, and </span><span>what they can do to mitigate risk associated with cybercrime. We will highlight issues around:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><strong><span>Data collection as a resource and liability </span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span>Challenges securing remote workers, and IT systems built and used without company approval or knowledge (known as "shadow IT")</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span>Understanding your attack surface (the aggregate of all known, unknown and potential vulnerabilities and controls) both in the office and in the cloud</span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span><span>Securing payments and preventing fraud</span></span></strong></li>
<li><strong><span><span>You’ve been breached…what happens now?</span></span></strong></li>
</ul>

<p>Startups are hard. You don't have to do it alone. Let's challenge the assumptions of what it means to be a startup founder, a person of color and build a diverse startup ecosystem here in Portland. Redefining diversity to be more inclusive (even including white males, go figure). Come for coffee. Meet other founders. Then get to work. Hosted by Yu Te, founder of MacPCX (and Startup Weekend Organizer) <a href="mailto:yu@macpcx.com">yu@macpcx.com</a> or 971-998-9511</p>

<p>You have a big idea, maybe even a co-founder. But you'd like a second opinion before you sever all ties to paid employment, loved ones and regular meals. Time to Pitch for a Beer and get frank and fast feedback from Portland Seed Fund managers!</p>
<p>How it works:
First 50 to arrive get in free with an elevator pitch to the bouncer. Those who want to pitch PSF simply drop their names in a hat. 12 names will be drawn for 5-min power sessions with PSF managers Jim Huston, Angela Jackson and Jenn Lynch. Ringler booths will be filled with other PSF alumni and mentors, so you will garner additional feedback from great sources even if your name didn't get drawn. Everyone gets a beer ticket (and pizza).</p>
<p>No RSVP required. Doors will be closed after first 50 in.</p>

<p>Inclusion has become a popular buzzword these days. But what does it really mean, why is it important, and what can we actually do about it? Our February PubTalk will cut through the jargon and vague “good intentions,” bringing uncomfortable truths about our startup community’s implicit biases to light. Attendees will walk away with a list of concrete actions they can take today to help ensure that all Oregon entrepreneurs have access to the support and resources they need to thrive.</p>
<p>Our all-star panel will feature Stephen Green of Elevate Capital (moderator), Paige Hendrix Buckner of ClientJoy, Tory Campbell of Felton & Mary’s Artisan Foods, Dwayne Johnson of ScaleUp Partners, and Grace Andrews of Puppet Labs and Lurabel.</p>
<p>As always, the program will be preceded by time for networking and will include free appetizers and pizza. Registration begins at 5:15 p.m.</p>
<p>Cost: $10 for OEN members; $20 for non-members. We do take walk-ins but prefer that you register online: <a href="http://bit.ly/feb-2016-pubtalk">http://bit.ly/feb-2016-pubtalk</a></p>

<p>At this West Side PubTalk(TM) we’ll discuss how do you fund a startup when the resources of the founders and friends and family run out? There are angel investors and venture capital firms, but they aren’t the only sources of funding for startups, and they are often not the right fit.
Fortunately, there are other options. Some of those options are:</p>
<p> Seed funds in Oregon invest anywhere from $10,000 to $250,000 in startups.</p>
<p> Banks will make loans to small businesses – but the business does have to meet some key requirements.</p>
<p> The federal SBIR program can provide $1 million in grant funding or more</p>
<p>At this West Side PubTalk, you’ll learn more about all three of these sources from a panel that has experience in each of these three types of funding.</p>

On the heels of Mother’s Day, hear from moms in the trenches who are learning to master the ‘Daily Juggle.’ They will share their challenges, their victories, and their tips for those who dare to try to ‘have it all.’</p>

<p>Equal parts hackathon, road trip and global community, StartupBus is a life accelerator that skyrockets you to your greatest potential. It’s an initiation into a community of over a thousand people who are on the same journey to greatness, on and off the bus.</p>
<p>Will StartupBus be uncomfortable? Yes, comfort and growth don’t coexist. Will you have to fight off ravenous, battery starved techies to charge your devices? Yep. Will there be consistent Internet? Yeah… probably not.</p>
<p>Will it be the single greatest adventure of your personal and professional life? Ab-so-effing-lutely.</p>
<p>One more question, but only you have the answer.</p>
<p>Are you crazy enough to jump on a bus conceive, build and launch a startup with a group strangers in 72 hours?</p>

<p>By now, you've heard the news about the layoffs occurring at Intel, Oregon's largest employer. And now Jive, as well. Nearly 800 people from our community are now in the midst of searching for new jobs.</p>
<p>But you know what? In Portland, we have never been a community that shies away from making the best out of every situation. Or from supporting one another. And that's not going to change anytime soon. Especially now.</p>
<p>That's why <strong><a href="https://github.com/piepdx/intel-outside/blob/master/companies.md" title="Intel Outside companies">a bunch of us</a></strong> are banding together to figure out ways to help those folks affected.</p>
<p>Why? Because we're a community. And this is what communities do.</p>

<p>Nat Parker is the CEO of moovel North America. moovel N.A. works to bring mobility solutions for public and alternative transportation options to North American cities through two distinctive but complementary products.</p>
<p>Prior to leading moovel N.A., Parker co-founded and served as CEO of GlobeSherpa, a market leader in mobile ticketing technology for public transportation. GlobeSherpa launched the nation’s first multimodal white-label mobile ticketing app, TriMet Tickets, in Portland, Oregon in September 2013. Under Parker’s leadership, GlobeSherpa grew to service 16 transit agency clients in eleven U.S. cities. Following the merger of GlobeSherpa and RideScout as moovel N.A., GlobeSherpa’s mobile ticketing platform evolved to become moovel transit.</p>
<p>Join us and learn how one of Oregon’s hottest startups was able to execute and grown their company from its inception, when Nat and his co-founder were still graduate students at Portland State University, to where they are now.</p>

<p>PIE and Built Oregon would like to invite you to our first Community Hour[s]. This will be an ongoing gathering of all the people who make up the entrepreneurial fabric in our community. There is no agenda, panel, or discussion. It’s a time to relax and network with old friends and new connections. As much as we all love technology, relationships are built through personal connections and shared stories. So we hope you’ll join us for a few minutes, or a couple hours at the CENTRL Office Main Bar on August 3rd from 5-7pm.</p>

<p>After a great beta test, we're ready to take this thing into production. PIE and Built Oregon would like to invite you to our first Community Hour[s]. This will be an ongoing gathering of all the people who make up the entrepreneurial fabric in our community. There is no agenda, panel, or discussion. It’s a time to relax and network with old friends and new connections. As much as we all love technology, relationships are built through personal connections and shared stories. So we hope you’ll join us for a few minutes, or a couple hours at the CENTRL Office Main Bar on September 6th from 5-7pm. (Ending at 7pm sharp!)</p>
<p>See you there!</p>

How do I tell the founding story to possible investors?
How much should I pay the initial team and/or co-founder?

<p>Here's what one participant has said about Pitch Club -</p>
<p>“Pitch Club rocks! The real value to me hasn’t been the outline of a pitch or the focus on the specific pieces but rather the nuggets of wisdom that come up in the discussions from Tom and other’s in attendance. I’ve also found a lot of value in the feedback & discussion from all involved during the pitches.” – Jeremiah Church, C3 Backflow</p>

<p>Eric started Vacasa in November 2009 after acquiring the responsibility of managing a family member’s vacation home. In six short years Vacasa has grown from 2 - 1,300 employees in the U.S., Europe, and Central and South America. And just this summer, Vacasa scored a $35M Series A (one of the industry’s largest to date and 3X times Airbnb's Series A). With Eric and his team experiencing rapid year over year growth including 11 acquisitions, this is sure to be a valuable discussion.</p>

<p>PIE, Silicon Florist, and Built Oregon would like to invite you to Community Hour[s], an ongoing gathering of all the people who make up the entrepreneurial fabric in our community. There is no agenda, panel, or discussion. It’s a time to relax and network with old friends and new connections. As much as we all love technology, relationships are built through personal connections and shared stories. So we hope you’ll join us for a few minutes, or a couple hours at the CENTRL Office Pearl Main Bar from 5-7pm. (Ending at 7pm sharp!)</p>

<p>Entrepreneurs are often told to “network” their way to investors, mentors, and business partners. But this can be scary if you’re not comfortable, don’t know where to start or what to say. Come get some practice building your social capital game.</p>
<p>Do successful networkers have a secret? Do the top networkers talk differently? Have different body language? Respond in different ways depending on the conversation starter? We want to help you better understand what it means to be a successful networker.</p>
<p><em>Details:</em></p>
<p>The OEN PubTalk™ is our flagship monthly happy hour — a perfect starting point for new community members and a great place for established members to make new connections.</p>
<p>For our November PubTalk, we have partnered with a local research team, the Science of People who will be running a little experiment on networking behavior. They will ask you to fill-out a little pre and post survey as your enter and exit the event and will be observing during the event. We will share the results for you in a few months! (If you would like to opt-out, no problem! Just let us know at the door.)</p>

<p>Building great products takes a lot of work, but hard work isn't enough on its own. No matter what you're building, you're going to need a plan for how you'll get there. In this talk, we'll talk about the Heroku Postgres team's working habits as it scaled a 24x7 high-availability product while maintaining close contact with its users over a long period. We'll focus on the specific and practical techniques the team used to plan, organize, and execute its work, and talk about the principles behind them. After a tour of some of these techniques, Heroku Postgres founding member Peter van Hardenberg will answer your questions about scaling from startup to acquisition and massive scale.</p>
<p><strong>Speaker Bio: </strong></p><p>
Peter van Hardenberg was an early team member at Heroku and co-founded Heroku's Department of Data, the team behind Heroku Postgres. Heroku was acquired by Salesforce.com in December 2010 for $212M less than four years after founding. Prior to joining Heroku, he worked as an Arctic oceanographer, game developer, and Shakespearean scholar. He lives in San Francisco and, among other things, advises high-growth software companies like Zapproved and Auth0.</p>

<p>For 24 years, Gerry has served as a Managing Director with OVP Venture Partners, the most experienced venture capital firm in the Pacific Northwest. OVP is in its 33rd year, having raised its seventh fund (OVP VII) at $250 million. OVP has over $750 million of capital under management and focuses on early-stage companies in information technology, clean tech, and digital biology. Since its founding in 1983, the partnership has backed over 125 startups – and seen over 50 liquidity events including 25 IPOs with more than 30 others being acquired by public companies.</p>
<p>From 1981 to 1992, Gerry was co-founder of Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) where he served as President and Board member. He helped lead Mentor to over $400M in sales and $1B in market capitalization, ranking it as one of the largest and most profitable of all U.S. companies founded in the 1980s. The company remains the fastest growing public software company to $200 million (in constant dollars) in US history. At now over $1B in sales, Mentor continues to rank as the second largest software company in the Pacific Northwest, behind only Microsoft.</p>
<p>His service as a board member covers the range from enterprise software, network security, wireless communications and clean tech to biotechnology. He is the author of The Success Matrix – Winning in Business and in Life (Logos Press, March 2014), Take the Money and Run! An Insider’s Guide to Venture Capital (Smashwords and Lulu Press, 2011) and The Vision Trap (Harvard Business Review, March 1992), which continues to be widely used in business schools and corporate training sessions.</p>
<p>He currently serves on the Board of Directors of CradlePoint, DataSphere, EnerG2, and Novomer.</p>
<p>In 2012, Gerry was appointed by Governor Kitzhaber to the Oregon Growth Board where he serves as co-chair. He previously served as School Board Chair of the Riverdale School District and also chaired the Riverdale School Foundation. He has served as Chair of the Oregon Museum of Science & Industry (OMSI) Board of Trustees, and Chair of the State of Oregon Facilities Authority – a bonding agency for not-for-profits. In 2011, he received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Oregon Entrepreneurs Network.</p>
<p>He holds a BA, Chemistry from Cornell University, and a MBA from Harvard.</p>

<p>It's <a href="http://portland.startupweek.co">Portland Startup Week</a>! What better time to get the startup community together? </p>
<p> </p><p>That's why <a href="http://builtoregon.com/">Built Oregon</a>, <a href="http://piepdx.com/">PIE</a>, and <a href="http://siliconflorist.com/">Silicon Florist</a> is using Startup Week as an opportunity to kick off a new year of Community Hour[s], our ongoing gatherings for all of the people who make up the entrepreneurial fabric of our community. There is no agenda, panel, or discussion. It’s a time to relax and network with old friends and make new connections with your peers and across industries. </p> <p>As much as we all love technology, we realize that community relationships are built through personal connections and shared stories. So we hope you’ll join us for a few minutes — or a couple of hours.</p> <p>As always, Community Hour[s] are graciously hosted by <a href="http://centrloffice.com/">CENTRL Office</a>.</p> <p>See you there!</p> <p>P.S. Don't forget… if you're interested in getting involved in Portland Startup Week, <a href="http://siliconflorist.com/2016/12/30/interested-starting-year-participate-portland-startup-week-2017/"><b>there's still time to host your own event</b></a>. It's easy. Just pick a time, a topic, and a place and we'll get you added to the list.</p>

<p>A Hack the Dot is a two-hour hackathon where coding school students, junior developers, experienced developers, marketers, designers and curious web people come together to build ideas around a domain name. Our events are meant to be a quick and fun way to build a humorous (and functional) product quickly while meeting people in your tech/startup community.</p>
<p>There will be pizza. And beer.</p>
<p>What to Bring / How to Prepare:
• Bring your laptop (fully charged). Bring your charger just in case.
• Install the Atom text editor. Go here: <a href="https://atom.io/">https://atom.io/</a>
• Setup a github.com account</p>
<p>How does it work?
Step 1: Attendees are broken up into random teams and assigned spirit animals to guide their efforts.
Step 2: The teams are provided with the same undisclosed domain name by Name.com, arbitrary and often hilarious.
Step 3: Teams have just two hours to come up with a functioning site inspired by that domain. The team builds the most creative and fun idea for the domain wins.</p>
<p>Participants will be judged on four criteria: (1) functionality, (2) design, (3) humor, and (4) creative domain name interpretation.</p>
<p>What do you get at the event?
FOOD!
SWAG!
FRIENDS!</p>
<p>How much does it cost?
It’s FREE!</p>
<p>Questions? Send them to HacktheDot at name.com.</p>

<p>During the 10th installment of “The Perfect Pitch,” Tom Kingsley will cover the final installment – Exit and Ask</p>
<p>The Exit and Ask will consist of: How you expect to cash investors out, recent comparable examples, basic ask terms, the amount, form of investment, bullet points on use of funds.</p>
<p>Pitch Club is an ongoing series where entrepreneurs can practice their pitch and business plan. Tom Kingsley creates a dynamic and realistic environment to deeply understand what the investors are looking for and role-play being an investor to other entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>There is no need to have attended the other installments to attend this one – we look forward to seeing you there!</p>

<p>Join <a href="http://builtoregon.com/">Built Oregon</a>, <a href="http://piepdx.com/">PIE</a>, and <a href="http://siliconflorist.com/">Silicon Florist</a> for Community Hour[s], our ongoing gathering for all of the people who make up the entrepreneurial fabric of our community. There is no agenda, panel, or discussion. It’s a time to relax and network with old friends and make new connections with your peers and across industries. </p>
<p> </p><p>As much as we all love technology, we realize that community relationships are built through personal connections and shared stories. So we hope you’ll join us for a few minutes — or a couple of hours.</p> <p>See you there!</p>

<p>Addressing the housing and homelessness crisis is essential to the future success of our city and businesses. With an issue of this scale and complexity, it can be difficult to know how we, as businesses, can engage in solutions.</p>
<p>In partnership with Business for a Better Portland members New Seasons Market and TerraMai PDX, we invite you to join us on Monday, April 17 for an event connecting members and business leaders with change makers working on the frontlines to ensure safe, stable and affordable housing for all.</p>
<p>You’ll have an opportunity to learn from community leaders, provide input on our advocacy, and walk away with a clearer sense of the concrete options for civic engagement. The challenges our city faces call for a new approach to engagement that is collaborative and advances the outcomes that will benefit not only our businesses, but the community as a whole.</p>
<p>We're excited to offer Business for a Better Portland members exclusive, earlybird registration. We look forward to seeing you!</p>
<p>Registration for non-members will be available as space allows starting April 3rd. Not a member yet? <a href="https://www.bbpdx.org/join-us/">Find out more about how to become one</a>.</p>

<p>TiE Young Entrepreneurs (TYE) is a Global program aimed at fostering our future generation of entrepreneurs. TYE focuses on teaching entrepreneurship to high school students and helping them discover the rewards and challenges of becoming an entrepreneur. During the program the students form teams, go through workshops focused on different aspects of business and entrepreneurship, and then create products and companies.</p>
<p>This year, teams will be coming from schools all around the Portland Metro area including Jesuit, Reynolds, Benson, Catlin Gabel, Rosemary Anderson, and others.</p>
<p>Teams compete at the state level first and the winner of each chapter goes on to the Global Competition to compete for cash prizes. This year, the Global Competition is taking place in Irvine California at the end of June.</p>

<p>Much ado is made about angel investment and venture capital, but the truth of the matter is that the majority of businesses get their funding elsewhere. Before you start chasing down angel investors, take some time to understand the full funding landscape, from community public offerings to crowdfunding to small business loans.</p>
<p>At our June PubTalk, funders will pitch to YOU to provide an overview of who their target market is and how they stack up to their competition.</p>
<p>The OEN PubTalk™ is our flagship monthly happy hour — a perfect starting point for new community members and a great place for established members to make new connections. As always, the program will be preceded by time for networking and will include free appetizers and pizza.</p>

<p>What is a sales pipeline? Why do I need a sales pipeline? How do I use my sales pipeline?</p>
<p>One of the things I hate about some of the workshops or seminars I have attended over the years is that I walk out with great intentions to use everything I learned but then I do not implement the thing or things I had learned. Why? My theory is that while in the workshops I just sat and listened, take notes and participate but I did not ‘leave’ with something that fit me. Once I got home I had to make the program work for me and personalize it for me.</p>
<p>With this in mind I have designed my workshops to be hands-on, small and intimate. We work together as a team to design what you need not what the masses need. So my challenge to you is to walk out of my workshop with the framework for your ready-to-use personal sales pipeline.</p>
<p>Sales pipelines are not just a visual representation of your sales prospects…it is the bible of your business. Your pipeline should be personal and represent you and your business. At any time, you should be able to it pull up your pipeline and speak clearly and intelligently to where you are at in your business.</p>
<p>My one-hour brown bag lunch workshop is designed to help you understand the importance to having a pipeline, how to manage your pipeline and design a quickie pipeline that is fits your personality and your personal needs.</p>
<p>Please remember to bring your laptop and a lunch!</p>
<p>Cost: FREE</p>

<p>Have you considered crowdfunding to launch your big idea? Or, have you done the research and felt overwhelmed by the process of crowdfunding, and wished you could ask someone that has been there and done that? Now is your chance! Our panelists, Marguerite Svendson from the Coolest Cooler Campaign, Tara O’Mara from PDX Pet Design Campaign, and Jessica Chan from the Winkpens (now operating as Modern Human Instruments) Campaign covering the ins and outs of crowdfunding strategy and the do’s and don’ts of running a successful campaign. Combined these panelists raised nearly 14 million in crowdfunding money with their campaigns! Amazing Women. We'll have an amazing time.</p>

When: First pitch will be at 6:00pm with doors opening at 5:30pm and everyone out by 8:00pm
Where: Our gracious hosts are the great folks at Instrument. Their amazing HQ is located at the One North development in the heart of inner N/NE Portland on North Williams Ave.</p>

By day he is the Community Manager for Townsquared where he is engaging area small businesses to support each other and share knowledge. Stephen, along with others in the community have been looking to spread broader narratives about black founders locally. This event wouldn't be possible without the support of some amazing partners; Instrument, Spirit Mountain Community Fund, Silicon Florist, Digital Trends, Built Oregon, ClientJoy, Albina Community Bank, Miller Nash Graham & Dunn LLP, Business For A Better Portland</p>
<p>Why: To connect the region's growing entrepreneurial ecosystem with the increasing number of African-American founders.</p>

<p>Before investing your life savings, asking friends and family for investment or leaving an existing job, there are things every entrepreneur should know about the road ahead. At The Bridge we work with new entrepreneurs every day. This 4-hour workshop reflects what we have learned about the risks and rewards of entrepreneurship and offers practical guidance on how to start a high impact business.</p>
<p>At The Bridge we focus on scalable and high impact businesses as opposed to “Main Street” small businesses. There is often, but not always, a strong element of technological innovation in these businesses. This might involve software development, engineering or even food science. Scalable businesses generally have more significant investment requirements and nationally, if not globally directed strategies.</p>
<p>In this entrepreneurial workshop participants will learn about:
Financing Options – We will outline known and conventional funding sources for Entrepreneurs as well as discuss bootstrapping a startup without any outside funding</p>
<p>The Stages of a startup and what to expect at each stage
IDEA > CONCEPT > COMMIT > VALIDATION > SCALE > ESTABLISHING</p>
<p>Business Model Canvas – This useful framework is a foundational tool for early stage founders to effectively map out all the areas required to make a business successful</p>
<p>This workshop is put on in cooperation with WorkSource and The Bridge. There is a fee of $495 per attendee, but based on eligibility Worksource is offering full scholarships to qualified individuals.</p>
<p>Please contact Doreen Englemann at WorkSource WA for details at <a href="mailto:dengelmann@esd.wa.gov">dengelmann@esd.wa.gov</a> or 360-735-4960.</p>

<p>Elemental Technologies is one of Portland’s biggest start-up successes. Founded in 2006, Elemental was acquired for a reported $287M just nine years later by AWS Elemental, an Amazon Web Services company. Along the way, Jesse Rosenzweig, and his co-founders learned a lot; some things worked out well and some things should have been done differently. Come hear Jesse speak about the lessons learned, and memorable stories along the way.</p>

<p><strong>Welcome to the first meet up of the Happy Startup School's Portland Chapter!</strong></p>
<p>On 12 October we'll be hosting an intimate gathering of likeminded people that believe there's more to life and business than making money.</p>
<p>Launched in the UK in 2012, <a href="http://www.thehappystartupschool.com/">The Happy Startup School</a> has grown from a small meetup in London to a global community of purpose-driven founders, creatives and leaders that regularly gather to inspire each other and have the conversations that matter. They run experiences and programs that set people on the right path, where money and meaning meet.</p>
<p>For our first event we are also lucky enough to have Laurence McCahill and Carlos Saba, founders of the Happy Startup School with us, as they pass through on their way to Alptitude USA – their week-long retreat for changemakers at Mount Hood that takes place October 15-22.</p>
<p>They'll share their story, ask questions and get us all sharing ideas and learning from each other.</p>
<p><strong>Who's it for?</strong></p>
<p>Do you feel a compulsion to get a new project, product, app or service that you believe in, live and into the real world?</p>
<p>Are you a skilled tech, design or marketing professional attracted to the energy of the startup scene?</p>
<p>Or are you just super energised and excited to help someone bring their vision to the world?</p>
<p>If so, come and join us for an evening of structured but agenda-less small group conversation.</p>
<p>For those new to Lean coffee, it is a structured but agenda-less meeting. Participants gather, democratically choose the topic of discussion by vote, then get talking. Simples.</p>
<p>There are dozens of Lean Coffee meetups happening across the world in places like Seattle, San Francisco, Toronto, Stockholm, Edinburgh, Brighton and now we can add Portland to that list.</p>
<p><strong>Who usually comes along?</strong></p>
<p>• budding startups
• intrapreneurs
• small business owners
• one man bands
• people with a passion for startups
• ...and anyone who simply wants to learn, or create.</p>
<p>Topics regularly discussed within small groups are:</p>
<p>• productivity hacks
• how to test an idea without having customers
• building a 100% transparent company
• pricing your services effectively
• how to find designers/developers
• how to choose the right product features
• community building hacks
• growth & content marketing</p>
<p>...but we welcome all sorts of startup, business and happiness related topics you might need help with.</p>
<p>Look forward to seeing you there.</p>

<p>At Alchemy Code Lab, we strive to cultivate more creativity, opportunity, and impact for everyone in our community through code. That’s why we’re excited to announce App Lab, a brand new consultancy program that combines the fresh talent of Alchemy grads with the seasoned skill of Alchemy mentors to bring the web & mobile application ideas of local entrepreneurs, businesses, and nonprofits to life!</p>
<p>Do you have a vision for an app or a technology component of your business you’ve been unable to realize? The reality is that paying full price for an MVP or internal app has traditionally be cost-prohibitive -- and as a result, many ideas simply never get built.</p>
<p>Come learn about App Lab’s cost-effective approach to small-scale app development (think beauty school haircut or culinary institute dining, but for apps) and see if our consultancy is a good fit!</p>

<p>Whether talking to someone in line at the supermarket or pitching to a VC, you need to be able to communicate your great idea. But the best message in the world won’t stick if you deliver it poorly, and a great delivery cannot overcome a confusing message. Join us to learn how to craft a clear, concise, compelling pitch that will pique investor interest.</p>
<p>You’ll walk away with an understanding of:</p>
<ul>
<li>The problem you’re solving and your value proposition</li>
<li>What questions you need to answer before crafting your pitch</li>
<li>The elements, structure, and visuals that comprise a successful pitch</li>
<li>How to condense a full pitch into a one-minute elevator pitch</li>
</ul>
<p>Registration for this workshop includes one pass to our March 14 PitchFest and three free months of LivePlan business plan software (combined value of $85). Following the workshop, participants will have an opportunity to complete a one-page overview of their business using LivePlan and submit it for the opportunity to compete in PitchFest.</p>

<p>Immersive technology like augmented and virtual reality is creating a rapidly growing new industry. A report from Tech Trends’ Editor-in-chief, Alice Bonsaio cites this fast growing sector estimated to be $162B by 2020! Far beyond gaming and entertainment, there is potential for this technology to disrupt everything from healthcare and architecture to changing the way we maintain global supply chain. Join us for an engaging evening of conversation with early startup founders and those that support them, as we explore the experience of being on the ground floor of this new immersive reality.</p>
<p>The evening will start with a presentation from Russell Ladson, the Founder of Drop, a ViveX company. Russell will then be joined by two to three other local startup founders in the immersive tech space. We will have a candid conversation about their experiences as founders in the new field, the current state of this technology and where it is headed, along with Q&A from the audience. It will be an insightful and engaging panel.</p>

<p>It's been a while since we've met, but we're using Portland Startup Week as an excuse to resurrect this incredible meetup.</p>
<p>About Coffee w/ Co-Founders: As a business owner you are faced with many challenges. You're forced to make decisions every day that could make or break your business. Coffee w/ Co-Founders is a way to network with other Entrepreneurs to allow free flowing information with the intent to collaborate and help each other. So often we're challenged and there's very little we can do to express our challenges with the people we work with or the people we care about. Think of Coffee w/ Co-Founders as your own personal support group for business owners. We're all here to help!</p>

<p>Ryan Carson, CEO of Portland educational platform Treehouse will sit down to talk about education and why colleges may not be the right path for some people looking to launch their programming careers. The chat will touch on cost and why the traditional path of going through college may not be right for everyone. Aside from the financial burden traditional educational institutions place on students, Ryan will talk about why platforms like Treehouse break down these barriers to create an entire new community of talented developers.</p>
<p>Josh Carter, CEO of Patriot Boot Camp, will be moderating.</p>

<p>We flip around the typical roles, asking some of Portland's leading funders to make the kind of elevator pitch they're typically on the other end of. Each investor will get five minutes and up to five slides to win over attendees. Following the last pitch the investors will have a panel discussion to help founders put their best foot forward.</p>
<p>We are excited to have special guest Arlan Hamilton participating, founder and managing partner of Backstage Capital. Her emergence on the venture capital stage has been chronicled in Fortune, Fast Company, Inc and Tech Crunch. Her firm has made over 80 investments in early stage companies in the last two years (including a handful of PDX firms).</p>

<p>During this Leadership Narrative lunch and learn, Tyrone Poole (founder of One App Rentals) will talk about what it truly takes to win as an entrepreneur and how failing is a part of the journey. This is a great opportunity to meet with and learn from one of Portland's shining stars. Seating is limited so register now and reserve your spot!</p>
<p>ABOUT ONEAPP OREGON
OneApp Oregon was started out of necessity. Tyrone Poole, Founder and CEO, was training to become a firefighter when he suffered a gruesome injury that hospitalized him. With no insurance or income, Tyrone's bills piled up and by the time he was released from the hospital he was broke and homeless. Tyrone took shelter in the YWCA, where he made it his mission to help people find housing. In his time helping people, one thing became very clear: application fees and the uncertainty of applying to properties were crippling. Application fees can cost upwards of $50, and there's no way for an applicant to know whether they meet the property's criteria. From this realization, an idea was born: one application, one application fee, transparency to all properties. OneApp Oregon was born.</p>

These companie were all iconic market leaders that couldn’t adapt to new business models and technology innovations ahead of their competitors. Our world is changing fast. Markets and consumers are demanding faster, cheaper, and better products. Demands for quicker turnaround on new product development and innovation have only increased. Enterprises must learn how to adapt quickly to these changing technologies and economic conditions or they will become extinct, no matter their size, smarts, or strength. This holds true even for businesses that don’t consider themselves Information Technology (IT) or software companies. Professional services, financial services, healthcare institutions, and government entities are all highly dependent on their ability to produce new technology-based products and services. How do companies like Google, Yahoo, Amazon, and Apple keep up? They practice agile techniques.</p>

<p>What if once a month, one of us agreed to block a couple of hours for a series of 10 minute meetings with folks who have been trying to get on your calendar?</p>
<p>I know, crazy right? No wait. There’s more. What if this block of meetings occurred at a coffee shop or maybe even a bar?</p>
<p>Still with me? Because here’s where it gets wacky.</p>
<p>What if we all showed up at that same place those meetings were happening? Because we were invited. Not because it was random or something. And we invited other community members to hang out there too, like a happy hour. Then we ask the folks having meetings to do their homework to make the meeting efficient, to show up early for their meeting time, and to stay late so they get to meet more people — and get connected more quickly. It might even be that in the middle of one of our 10 min meetings, we could just point at someone in the crowd and be like “That’s the person you need to talk to, right there.”</p>
<p>In my head, I’ve been calling the “Bottleneck.” Because that’s what I am. And that’s what I’m trying to solve for. And I thought it might be a solution that could work for you. And our community. And I’m down to beta test it as the meeting-haver if a few of you are willing to join me as the happy hour-ers.</p>

<p>Over the last few years, we’ve had the chance to host many events that expose founders to an alternative universe where companies they’ve been told can’t be built without massive amounts of VC funding are thriving with little, to no, outside investment. We often start these events by warning attendees that they won’t be able to unsee what they’re about to see. Many leave these events with a whole new perspective on not only what is possible, but why limiting exposure the traditional venture business model is beneficial for founders, employees and the cultures and values they’re hoping to embody with their businesses.</p>
<p>Rather than write another blog post or clever FAQ, we wanted to bring that same in-person experience to those considering investment from Indie.vc.</p>
<p>Over the next 2 months, we’ll be embarking on a tour of most major metros in the US (we tried picking towns that were a short-ish road trip away from just about anywhere). Our goal with these info sessions is to share our experiences and motives directly with the Indie-curious. They are open to founders interested in taking investment from Indie.vc and Angels/Funds interested in funding companies the way we do. We’re planning to have some founders we’ve backed, and founders who’ve built and scaled profitable businesses, join us for these events to answer questions and share their experiences embracing the values and tactics we preach.</p>
<p>RSVP at <a href="https://indie.vc">https://indie.vc</a></p>

<p>You have a big idea, maybe even a co-founder. Now you're ready to Pitch for a Beer and get frank and fast feedback from Portland Seed Fund managers, investors and alums!</p>
<p>How it works: No sign-up required. First 12 entrepreneurs to arrive will get 5-min power sessions with PSF managers Jim Huston, Angela Jackson and Jenn Lynch. Ringler booths will be filled with PSF alumni founders and mentors, so additional rotations give you extra feedback. Everyone gets pizza (and a beer!)</p>
<p>Event capacity - 50 people.</p>

<p>Join as at the upcoming 4th Annual Woman Led (un)Conference! This annual event brings together local business owners to create an open and ongoing dialogue, share their experiences and resources, and to expand their network of like minded people in their community.</p>
<p>The Unconference follows an open format, where the topics discussed are driven by the participants and their interests and needs. We will begin the day with some time to meet other participants, followed by an introduction to the Unconference format and creation of the days agenda!</p>
<p>This years (un)Conference will be followed by a Fundraising Panel featuring an amazing group of women with a lot to teach us about how to get your business funded. We are excited to welcome:</p>
<blockquote><blockquote>
<p>Sara Batterby of The Batterby Group who has working in Venture Capital, has raised money as the co-founder of Hi-Fi farms, and now helps other women business owners get the funding they need.</p>
<p>Jill Keulher of Freeland Spirits. Jill left a long career in Nonprofits to start the first woman owned and run distillery in the country. In only a couple years she has successfully raised 2 rounds of funding and has enjoyed critical acclaim.</p>
<p>Julia Niiro of MilkRun. Julia launched MilkRun in 2017 after falling in love with small scale farming, but seeing first hand the difficulty of being a small scale producer. MilkRun was created to solve the marketing and logistics hurdles of small producers, using technology to replicate joint collection and delivery.</p>
</blockquote></blockquote>

<p>Startup ecosystem builders from around the US are visiting Portland, this week. So we'd like them to meet all of the awesome folks in our startup community.</p>
<p>Ecosystem builders are people who drive long-term change by supporting innovation and entrepreneurship. They work to reduce barriers for entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>Ecosystem builders come from a variety of backgrounds and expertise, including entrepreneurs, government officials, economic developers, grassroots community leaders, university leaders, academics, philanthropists, corporate leaders, and media. What distinguishes Ecosystem Builders is their collaborative nature, systems thinking, selfless approach, and commitment to inclusion.</p>
<p>Ecosystems thrive when people and resources are connected and working together to develop new approaches and solutions for serving entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>Please join us for this casual meet and greet. Share your knowledge about the Portland startup community. And learn what's working in other startup communities around the US.</p>

<p>Thanks to a grant from US Bank, OEN is proud to announce a partnership with Oregon State University to pilot our Startup Series in a hybrid (part online, part in person) platform. This partnership allows us to scale this critical program to entrepreneurs across the state. OSU is a leading provider of online content and their expertise, combined with OEN’s stellar network of instructors/mentors, will provide a top-notch program accessible to anyone, anywhere.</p>
<p>Do Excel spreadsheets make your heart skip a beat? Are you embarrassed to admit that you’re not sure what a hashtag is? No entrepreneur can be expected to know it all. Our 10-week Startup Series covers the nuts and bolts of the areas in which you may lack expertise, including business structure, financial management, sales & marketing strategies, fundraising, and more. As an added benefit, each participant will be paired with a mentor, as well as have access to a mentor in each specialty for the duration of the 10-week series.</p>
<p>In addition to formal instruction in weekly classes, each participant in OEN’s Startup Series will have access to a network of mentors covering each of the session topics below. Our mentors have agreed to provide guidance during the full 10 weeks of this program. Have a burning funding or accounting problem? No need to wait until week 7, just email one of our mentors. A full mentor list will be provided on the first day of class.</p>
<p>Scholarship Opportunity: SPOTS FILLING UP FAST! If you would like to be considered for a scholarship for the Startup Series, please complete this form below. Thank you to US Bank and Columbia Bank for sponsoring these scholarships!</p>
<p>Deadline to apply for scholarships is March 25.</p>

<p>Join our friends at OTBC for a Portland Lunch 2.0… in Beaverton. It's all part of Portland Startup Week. (If you're in downtown Portland, it's just a quick trip on the MAX Blue Line to get out to the location.)</p>
<p> </p><p>Space is limited</p> <p>Access: 1 minute walk from MAX. Alternatively - there is, of course, plenty of free parking.</p> <p>For parking: <a href="http://www.otbc.org/directions" class="linkified">http://www.otbc.org/directions</a></p> <p>For MAX: When you exit MAX you're facing Bogza coffee. We're in the brick building just beyond Bogza.</p> <p>Either way - use the building entrance on Rose Biggi Ave.</p>

<p>Register for the Skills Clinic and drop in anytime between 11am-12:30pm. We'll support you by helping you develop your very own plan for a specific new hire's onboarding process. You might get lucky and get a 1:1 session, but you may also share time with another person. It's all good, there's enough onboarding to go around! Come hammer out that onboarding plan and check something off your list.</p>

<p>Join us for this power hour workshop focused on helping historically underserved founders get access to startup capital.
About this Event</p>
<p>ABOUT THE EVENT</p>
<p>Are you a startup founder who wants to learn more about getting access to capital to grow your business? Or have you already gone through a painful process raising capital and want to do it with more confidence, competence, and control the next time around?</p>
<p>If that sounds like you, you’re going to love this one hour workshop!</p>
<p>Legacy fundraising relies on access and entitlement, rather than skills to win. So what does that mean for those of us who have been excluded from those networks? How do founders with diverse backgrounds, ethnicities, genders and identities gain access to capital?</p>
<p>In this one-hour workshop, you’ll discover:</p>
<p>The #1 barrier for founders to get equitable access to capital (and it’s probably not what you think!)
The “normal” raise process vs the effective raise process
The top 3 things you can start doing <em>immediately</em> to build confidence, competence, and capability for your raise
The Equity Capital Collective™ (EqCo - pronounced "echo") offers consulting and training for early and growth-stage startup founders.

<p>We see you. You’ve got that big idea bubbling. Some days it’s all you can think about. It’s the product or service the world really needs and you’re the one who can make it a reality. But what does it take to mold your brilliant idea into a company? What are the steps you take along the way—and where are you likely to trip?</p>
<p>Join us for our June PubTalk and hear from entrepreneurs who have started their journey where you are now, and they’ve turned their ideas from concepts to products and built companies around those products.</p>
<p>Isn’t it time to stop dreaming and build something? Come to our June PubTalk and find the inspiration you’ve been looking to put your idea into action.</p>
<p>DETAILS
The OEN PubTalk™ is our flagship monthly happy hour — a perfect starting point for new community members and a great place for established members to make new connections. The program will be preceded by time for casual networking. Registration begins at 5:15 p.m.</p>

<p>Cost: $15 for OEN members; $25 for non-members. We take walk-ins if space allows, but prices will be $20 for OEN members and $35 for non-members at the door. Beer, wine, and soda will be available for purchase. <em>Sorry, no refunds.</em></p>

<p>Hard to believe, but it's been a decade of experimentation around how established organizations — like corporations, government, and educational institutions — can better collaborate with the Portland startup community for mutual benefit.</p>
<p> </p><p>That's right. PIE is turning 10 years old in August 2019. So it seemed like a good time for a party. And our generous sponsors Autodesk (<a href="https://autodesk.com/" class="linkified">https://autodesk.com/</a>) and SKB (<a href="https://skbcos.com/" class="linkified">https://skbcos.com/</a>) volunteered to help us make it happen.</p> <p>Join PIE, PIE Shop, our alums, our mentors, and the entire Portland startup community to celebrate this milestone. As part of the celebration, we'll be happy to feed you and provide you with a beverage or two. And there will likely be some PIE giveaways, as well.</p> <p>NOTE: This is a family friendly event, so feel free to bring the kids.</p>

<p>at PIE, we love founders and founding teams. The passion, creativity, and grit that drive people to pursue their vision is a constant source of intrigue — and inspiration. And it’s a pursuit we want to encourage. And facilitate.</p>
<p>We believe that you should be building your company. And we want you to do that.</p>
<p>That said, after 10 years of doing this work, we recognize that one of the most challenging things about building a business is finding access to the people and resources that can help support you at the earliest stages. Before you’re popular. Before you’re a household name. Before you can afford an office. Before investors are lining up to fund you.</p>
<p>That’s why we’re here. To support you. Please apply: <a href="https://piepdx.com/apply">https://piepdx.com/apply</a></p>

<p>Pitch Club is a collaborative workshop for any entrepreneur with the desire to create and deliver a perfect pitch. Pitch Club will assist participants in sharpening their ability to communicate with investors including gaining insight on the types of questions potential investor will ask and the best way to answer them.</p>
<p>Why do we pitch?</p>
<p>To be successful, entrepreneurs need the ability to sell their product. Pitch Club will provide insight into perfecting how to talk about your business.</p>
<p>Who facilitates Pitch Club?</p>
<p>TiE has an extensive network of Charter Members. Many of our Charter Members have run successful businesses in the past and many are current Angel investors. We curate curriculum and leadership from the pool of talent within our network because of a shared desire to mentor entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>This month, Tom Kingsley, Successful Entrepreneur, TiE Charter Member, Mentor and Investor will lead the event.</p>
<p>Each attendee who intends to pitch should prepare a five minute pitch presentation. (This can include a power point projection that will be presented from your computer.) Directly after pitching a 10 minute Q&A will take place with questions to the imaginary investors about the product and pitch.</p>
<p>Those who attend pitch club will walk away with a better understanding of what investors look for in a pitch and how to answer the questions possible investor will ask. In addition, each presenter will receive a digital copy of their pitch and feedback from their peers and TiE Charter Members.</p>

<p>Pitch Club is a collaborative workshop for any entrepreneur with the desire to create and deliver a perfect pitch. Pitch Club will assist participants in sharpening their ability to communicate with investors including gaining insight on the types of questions potential investor will ask and the best way to answer them.</p>
<p>Why do we pitch?</p>
<p>To be successful, entrepreneurs need the ability to sell their product. Pitch Club will provide insight into perfecting how to talk about your business.</p>
<p>Who facilitates Pitch Club?</p>
<p>TiE has an extensive network of Charter Members. Many of our Charter Members have run successful businesses in the past and many are current Angel Investors. We curate curriculum and leadership from the pool of talent within our network because of a shared desire to mentor entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>This month, Tom Kingsley, Successful Entrepreneur, TiE Charter Member, Mentor and Investor will lead the event.</p>
<p>Each attendee who intends to pitch should prepare a five minute pitch presentation. (This can include a power point projection that will be presented from your computer.) Directly after pitching a 10 minute Q&A will take place with questions to the imaginary investors about the product and pitch.</p>
<p>Those who attend pitch club will walk away with a better understanding of what investors look for in a pitch and how to answer the questions possible investor will ask. In addition, each presenter will receive a digital copy of their pitch and feedback from their peers and TiE Charter Members.</p>

<p>At PIE (<a href="https://piepdx.com/">https://piepdx.com/</a>), we're hard at work, prepping a couple of new batches of startups — through both PIE and PIE Shop — who are eager to tell their stories. So we want to make sure that you're there to hear those stories.</p>
<p>We will be holding the next PIE Demo Day on Thursday, March 19, 2020 as an online event only. This change is due to concerns over COVID-19 Novel Coronavirus and ensuring the health and safety of the Portland startup community.</p>

<p>Cami lives, works, and parents in the rainy city of Portland, Oregon. She’s had a love of WordPress and WordCamps since the last century, when she happened to stumble upon the first WordCamp Portland.</p>
<p>Since 2013, she has worked at Automattic, as a community organizer for the WordPress open source project. In that role, she gets to work with WordCamps and their organizers from around the world, every day. She continues to write on an irregular basis at camikaos.com where she explores concepts from the plight of modern parents to mental health to marveling at the seemingly mundane.</p>
<p>Cami is active on a number of social platforms but can be most readily found as @camikaos on Twitter.</p>

<p>The photography world has been upended a few times in the last couple of decades and with all professional photography on hiatus for the time being, we'll find out if this leads to another major change. What hasn't changed is that every business, from startup to corporation, needs to have images of their people, products, venues, and other resources. These photos end up on websites, social media, in print, at those things called conferences that we used to do, and elsewhere. Folks are going to notice the difference between an organization that has solid consistent imagery versus an outfit where you can tell that their visual brand was an afterthought.</p>
<p>What does photography and visual branding look like for a startup or other organization in 2020 and beyond? When should you hire a pro and when should you do it yourself? If you can afford the same gear as a pro, what else are they bringing to the table that you don't have? Should you invest in photography proactively, or react as you have a need for pictures? Let's talk about visual media and photography.</p>
<p>Join us for a mentor Q&A with Aaron Hockley of Hockley Photography and TechPhotoGuy.com. Aaron is a professional photographer with a background in the tech world; he's photographed quite a few Portland tech startups and organizations over the past 12 years. The Professional Photographers of America has recognized him as a Master of Photography and Photographic Craftsman, which means that he knows a thing or two (maybe even three!) about making and using effective images.</p>

<p>We all rely on the bonds of our community in order for our businesses to thrive. We seek intros to VCs, backchannels to clients, advice from our peers and mentors. In normal times, these bonds heavily rely on in-person interactions — coffees, lunches, beers, and 1:1's.</p>
<p>Reading body language is a critical component to reinforcement of those bonds. In our most vulnerable moments, we want to ensure that the other party is present, listening, and empathizing. And beyond the 1:1 interactions, in social places like our coffee shops and coworking spaces, we create room for serendipity — that chance encounter that leads to something new and unexpected, whether it's a new business idea or a solution to an existing problem facing a member of our community.</p>
<p>During this pandemic, we've been stripped of the ability to interact as normal. Sure, we have all these video chat tools — but it's not a replacement of our in-person interactions, just a digital proxy. And while those proxies may suffice for our 1:1 meetings, they certainly aren't helping with serendipity.</p>
<p>So how do we form community in a time of crisis? How do we create space for chance? And how can we come together to listen, to engage, to be present, when many of us are already at our wits end staring at a video on a computer screen all day long?</p>
<p>Join us for a mentor Q&A with Marcelino Alvarez, Chief Product Officer at Fresh Consulting. He was formerly CEO of Uncorked Studios, which co-founded Safecast during the 2011 Fukushima earthquake and ensuing nuclear disaster. He'll share perspectives from then and now as he undertakes other efforts to maintain his community and pursue digital serendipity.</p>

<p>Please join us for a Q&A session with PIE alum and mentor in residence Sylvia Salazar of Tono Latino, a media company that helps distill politics down to digestible chunks — with a special focus on informing Latinx and Spanish speaking communities.</p>
<p>Sylvia is a Colombian immigrant and a computer engineer turned political activist. Her passion is helping other people understand what is going on in the world of politics and encourage them to become more politically involved and vote. She is determined to change Latinx representation in politics and in media.</p>
<p>As her following has grown, Sylvia has experimented with a number of video formats and has a variety of creative ways to make short form video work. (You can experience her creativity firsthand on Instagram.) She's excited to share that expertise with you.</p>

<p>Everyone needs hobbies. And if you follow PIE mentor Nick Lambert on Instagram, you'll see that the pandemic has been a good time for him to reboot a few of them: music, cooking, ridiculous short films… we all deal with this stuff differently.</p>
<p>We're happy to have Nick take moment away from his more creative efforts to join us for an "Ask Me Anything" session. Being a former startup founder, startup accelerator manager, and professional musician — and currently Customer Success Manager at local VR/AR/XR startup The Wild — you've got a wide range of topics at our disposal.</p>
<p>So please register to attend and start adding — and upvoting — the questions we'll be asking.</p>

<p>With the onset of quarantine and social distancing, many of us have been settling into a somewhat surreal semblance of remote work. It doesn't feel quite right. But we're doing our best to fake it. And because of that we're not really working from home.</p>
<p>PIE wants to help. That's why we've assembled a panel of PIE mentors: one who helps lead a successful remote only company, one who has worked as a remote employee for a decade while working alongside an online school student, and one who has assembled the most fervent community of remote workers on the planet — all while leading a remote company, himself.</p>
<p>Join these incredibly insightful PIE mentors for an open and honest discussion about how to be truly successful as a remote employee. And how to manage remote teams. And deal with all the life that happens when that life all happens in a single place.</p>
<p>Any question you've had about working from home, these folks are going to be able to answer.</p>
<p>Invited panelists</p>

<li>Barrett Brooks, ConvertKit</li>
<li>Cami Kaos, Automattic</li>

<p>Please join us with a former founder who has seen the ups and downs of the economy for insights on what to suspect — and some guidance that may help you navigate this new normal.</p>
<p>Elia Freedman was founder and CEO of Infinity Softworks, which he started in 1997 as a senior in college, leveraging both his business training and programming ability. The company has helped more than 20 million professionals and students in real estate, financial services, math and science who use calculation every day to solve problems and generate proposals, both in the field and at their desk.</p>
<p>The company's primary app, PowerOne, has been in existence as apps for iOS, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Palm OS, and Windows computers for more 20 years, Infinity Softworks re-launched PowerOne as a web and mobile service in 2018.</p>
<p>As a founder, Elia weathered both the dotcom bust and the mortgage crisis. Which is sure to inform a unique vantage on our current state of existence within a pandemic ravaged economy.</p>

<p>As we continue to move through this crisis, company leaders are forced to make quick, large-scale changes not only to the work envirnomnent but changes to products, services and sometimes target markets.

<p>Join us on Tuesday, April 28th at 12:00 noon when TiE Charter Member, Dave Underhill shares what great leaders are doing to keep their employees engaged, motivated and moving in unity. Plaese come prepared with questions and items to share as this will be a interactive meeting of mind-share.</p>

<p>Join PIE as we talk with Leah Noble Davidson, Chief Experience Officer at Because Human.</p>
<p>Leah has consulted within Portland’s startup tech industry for 10 years, working with larger teams from Jive and Puppet to startups like Torch and BeyondPulse.</p>
<p>Having newly ventured into the role of a founder, she’ll be asking questions from the perspective of a female design professional who can speak the language — but is only now really learning how to juggle the risks and rewards firsthand.</p>
<p>Finding answers is one thing. Knowing the questions to ask is entirely another. Leah — a professional asker of questions — will help us hone in on the right questions, provide the necessary reality checks, and share ideas about leveraging the startup community to find the help you need as your startup grows from a concept into being a real business.</p>

<p>We're excited to have the chance to sit down with Kate Ertmann for a question and answer session.</p>
<p>Her life's work has been focusing on building from scratch — or rebuilding and reorganizing — the operational infrastructure for sustainable businesses. That includes everything from the elements of a business plan, the importance of Mission and Purpose and Values, the how-to of defining Roles and Responsibilities, and when to hire and how to best structure that management org chart — as well as the finance that runs in parallel with all of that.</p>
<p>Her distinct rallying cry through all of that work is the necessity of embedding equity and inclusion in all processes, procedures, and culture of an organization, and as a guiding principle in all leaders with whom she works — especially when it is "hard" or if there are uncomfortable conversations to be had.</p>
<p>Kate constantly seeks to leverage her privilege and position: applying constant pressure to the systemic structure of 20th century practices so there can be systemic changes that will define 21st century practices.</p>

<p>We're honored to grab some time with the best startup journalist in Portland, if not the Northwest.</p>
<p>Please join us for a Q&A session with Malia Spencer, a Portland-based journalist who covers startups, venture capital, and technology for the Portland Business Journal.</p>
<p>Her career has ranged a variety of media, starting with traditional print journalism at daily newspapers. She began at a large metro then at a smaller daily paper on the California central coast. As the media landscape shifted, she finds herself with one foot still in traditional print and one firmly online.</p>
<p>At the Portland Business Journal we produce award-winning reporting in a weekly print edition as well as daily work online. I also edit out technology and entrepreneurs focused newsletter, TechFlash Portland.</p>

<p>Join cofounder and general manager of PIE, Rick Turoczy, for an "ask me anything" session on the Portland startup community. He's looking forward to answering your questions about startups, startup accelerators, and Portland, in general.</p>
<p>A little background on our guest…</p>
<p>Rick Turoczy has worked in, on, and around the Portland, Oregon, startup ecosystem for more than 25 years. Throughout that time, he's worked for venture funded startups, founded failed companies, consulted, mentored, and worked to connect dots within and outside the community.</p>
<p>More than a dozen years ago, he started Silicon Florist, a blog designed to capture what he saw happening in the Portland startup community. That work led to the opportunity to start PIE, the Portland Incubator Experiment, an organization he continues to manage.</p>
<p>At its very most basic, PIE is an ongoing experiment designed to explore ways that established organizations — like corporations, governments, and educational institutions — can effectively collaborate with startup communities in mutually beneficial ways, thereby strengthening the entire ecosystem.</p>
<p>PIE currently exists as an early stage startup accelerator with three separate areas of focus: Software as a Service (in partnership with Puppet), manufactured products (in partnership with Autodesk), and traditional consumer products like food, beverage, and apparel (in partnership with Built Oregon).</p>

<p>Join us for a conversation with Mitch Daugherty, cofounder and director of Built Oregon, an organization focused on championing the consumer product industry in Oregon.</p>
<p>The greatest joy Mitch has found is meeting with everyone in the statewide ecosystem. Listening to entrepreneurial challenges. Looking for opportunities to connect them to a resource that could help them get one step further down the road. Engaging in conversations about breaking down the silos and echo chambers.</p>
<p>He listened to stories and realized each one formed a piece of this tapestry that makes up Oregon.</p>
<p>As he looked back on his journey, he noticed the common theme in all his adventures and career choices has been the effort to bridge gaps through interaction and dialogue.</p>
<p>He cofounded Built Oregon as a way to build on a simple belief: that stories can raise awareness of companies and regions and help drive economic development.</p>
<p>Throughout that process, he's constantly reminded of what he has learned over his journey: Conversations matter. And the most important conversations take place with those outside of your sphere of influence, and with people who possess opposing views.</p>
<p>The value of a given dialogue hinges on conversations that are inclusive, honest and transparent.</p>

<p>As part of our celebration of Mental Health Month we'll be spending time with Anthony Ware who champions mental wealth.</p>
<p>Mental wealth is the collection of intentional thoughts, behaviors, and experiences—mental wealth deposits—someone uses to make a positive impact on their mental health. These deposits have a cumulative positive impact, especially during times when you’re challenged with mental illnesses and external events.</p>
<p>Mental wealth deposits include working with a therapist, spending time by large bodies of water to connect with nature, going on a vacation, or making time for friends and family.</p>

<p>According to The Oregonian, "Cloudability was among the most prominent of a generation of startups that emerged in Portland in the aftermath of the Great Recession. It helped clients such as BP, Sony and Siemens manage what they spent hosting their data in third-party data centers.</p>
<p>"Before its sale, Cloudability said it managed more than $9 billion in spending at Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud."</p>

<div class="description">
<p>Join us for a conversation with PIE alum and Techstars alum Julia Niiro, founder of MilkRun.</p>
<p>See Julia's story about MilkRun at PIE Demo Day 2019 (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbaIO9XltRg">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbaIO9XltRg</a>), her views on small local farms from TEDxPortland 2019, and the explosive growth MilkRun has seen due to the pandemic shared during Techstars Anywhere Demo Day 2020.</p>
<p>MilkRun works with farmers and producers in Oregon & Southern Washington to break down the access barriers to local food. The national average for how far food travels to get from the farm to your house is 1,500 miles. That’s wild! We’ve cut down our average to 35 miles and have designed a system that leapfrogs the industrialized food system. Less travel = less pollution. More access to food = fresher, healthier foods!</p>
<p>It’s not just about ditching the grocery store lines, it’s about keeping money in the community and supporting local producers. For farmers, we’re able to provide 6-7x what they’d make from a normal grocery store. It should be as easy (if not easier) to buy from local farmers as it is to order a cab or book a stay in someone’s house, right?</p>
<p>90% of the small farms in America right now are at risk of extinction. If mega-industrialized farming becomes our only option for food, we’ll have no more farmer’s markets, no more CSAs, no more farmers who are stewards to the land. Without radical new systems like MilkRun, the only options for food will be from huge corporations pushing profit over people, and we just don’t want to live in that kind of a world. We can do this, together!</p>

<p>Join PIE for a conversation with McKenna Dempsey, cofounder and CEO of current PIE company Kamber.</p>
<p>At least 20 million teenagers are living with a mental health disorder in the United States and 70% of them aren’t getting the treatment they need. Kamber’s mission is to change that by providing easily accessible tools and resources that empower teens to prioritize their mental health and make space for self acceptance.</p>
<p>By creating a mobile app that provides exercises for difficult moments, coping techniques and education, teens will be equipped with the tools they need to begin managing their mental health and find ways to ground themselves.</p>
<p>For more, see McKenna's presentation from PIE Demo Day 2020 (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_vrmHAI4MQ">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_vrmHAI4MQ</a>).</p>

<p>Pitch Club is a collaborative workshop for any entrepreneur with the desire to create and deliver a perfect pitch. Pitch Club will assist participants in sharpening their ability to communicate with investors including gaining insight on the types of questions potential investor will ask and the best way to answer them.</p>
<p>Why do we pitch?</p>
<p>To be successful, entrepreneurs need the ability to sell their product. Pitch Club will provide insight into perfecting how to talk about your business.</p>
<p>Who facilitates Pitch Club?</p>
<p>TiE has an extensive network of Charter Members. Many of our Charter Members have run successful businesses in the past and many are current Angel Investors. We curate curriculum and leadership from the pool of talent within our network because of a shared desire to mentor entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>This month, Tom Kingsley, Successful Entrepreneur, TiE Charter Member, Mentor and Investor will lead the event.</p>
<p>What to expect?</p>
<p>Each attendee who intends to pitch should prepare a five minute pitch presentation. (This can include a power point projection that will be presented from your computer.) Directly after pitching a 10 minute Q&A will take place with questions to the imaginary investors about the product and pitch.</p>
<p>Those who attend pitch club will walk away with a better understanding of what investors look for in a pitch and how to answer the questions possible investor will ask. In addition, each presenter will receive a digital copy of their pitch and feedback from their peers and TiE Charter Members.</p>

<p>Previously, Anika co-founded Unreasonable Lab VA (Virginia’s first mini-accelerator for social entrepreneurs), CO.STARTERS VA (a startup program for idea-stage founders) and Rebelle Con (a boutique conference for entrepreneurial women). At the same time, she worked with high-growth startups at nationally ranked accelerator program Lighthouse Labs and spearheaded the B Corp movement in Virginia as the state’s official B Keeper.</p>

<p>"As startups we have a chance to lead with equity as we develop our business plans, marketing, customer outreach, and the like," said Quincy. "From my perspective, equity includes including women, BIPOC, youth, elderly, and everyone undeserved by policies and programming."</p>
<p>Quincy is a young, native transportation planner from Portland. He began is transportation planning career volunteering at TriMet working directly with the HR department where he served as a volunteer translator and helped recruit Latinx employees.</p>
<p>Following his degree from Claremont McKenna College, Quincy engaged in post bac work at Berkeley in Sustainability and the Built Environment and City and Regional Planning. He won best research in Human Rights from the Mgrublian Center for Rights and was Claremont McKenna's first Mellon Mays undergraduate fellow, a fellowship for minority students interested in becoming PhD professors.</p>
<p>His research has consistently focused on creating sustainable and equitable planning and programming that support and involve people of color, people with disabilities, and low income residents. In all pursuits, Quincy is passionate about bringing equitable and sustainable practices to everyone regardless age, race, gender, sexuality, or belief.</p>

<p>Running a startup is hard enough as it is, but with a worldwide pandemic, it became a lot more difficult. And it forced any number of founders and teams to consider pivoting their product and market to survive.</p>
<p>If you're working through similar thoughts with your startup, hearing from folks who have already turned that corner might be helpful. So we're inviting you to join us for a conversation about pivots with Alisia Ford, founder and CEO of PIE and XXcelerate alum Glory Skincare, and Jonathan Minori, founder and Chief Product Officer for PIE and Techstars alum Caravel.</p>
<p>We'll talk through their experiences, their recommendations for founders who are considering a pivot, and how to communicate your intentions and reasoning to your team.</p>
<p>And as always, we'll also spend most of the conversation answering your questions. So if you've got questions or concerns, please share them so that we can get you the information you need.</p>

<p>Thinking about applying to PIE? Have questions about the program? Curious as to what an accelerator even does? Wondering if the format is right for you? Cool. Let's talk about that. All of that.</p>
<p>Please join PIE online for a question and answer session to get more information on our programs and the benefits for early stage startups.</p>
<p>Questions about the differences among the programs we offer causing you to second guess whether you should even show up? Well, let's get that one answered first. Yes. The answer is yes. If you're a founder of an early stage startup, you should show up.</p>
<p>And in terms of the differences? PIE is an accelerator designed to support startups building digital products. PIE Shop is an incubator/accelerator designed to support startups manufacturing physical products. PIE Consumer is focused on traditional consumer products like food, beverage, apparel, footwear, beauty, pet products… you get the gist.</p>

<p>Join us as PIE mentor Stephen Green talks with Ian Hathaway, coauthor of The Startup Community Way: Evolving an entrepreneurial ecosystem, the follow up to Startup Communities: Building an entrepreneurial ecosystem in your city by Brad Feld.</p>
<p>If you have questions about startup communities — or what Portland could be doing to become a better startup community — you won't want to miss this conversation.</p>
<p>"The Startup Community Way is an explanatory guide for startup communities. Rooted in the theory of complex systems, this book establishes the systemic properties of entrepreneurial ecosystems and explains why their complex nature leads people to make predictable mistakes. As complex systems, value creation occurs in startup communities primarily through the interaction of the parts—the people, organizations, resources, and conditions involved—not the parts themselves. This continual process of bottom-up interactions unfolds naturally, producing value in novel and unexpected ways. Through these complex, emergent processes, the whole becomes greater and substantially different than what the parts alone could produce.</p>
<p>"Although we are living in a booming age for startups, we need to think about the future. When the boom times slow, what will happen to our startup communities, and how will we ensure that entrepreneurial success is still within reach for everyone? This book provides a framework for answering these questions, looking at startup communities as complex systems that—given the right resources and support—can help entrepreneurs succeed and benefit society as a whole.</p>
<p>"If you have been involved in any way in building a startup community or entrepreneurial ecosystem in your city, The Startup Community Way is key to helping you understand the next phase of your journey."</p>
<p>The book releases on July 28, 2020. Preorder your copy: <a href="https://amzn.to/2WKt4Qe">https://amzn.to/2WKt4Qe</a></p>

<p>Pitch Club - Mock Investor Meeting is a meeting in which entrepreneurs learn the criteria and methods used by real investors to evaluate their venture as a potential investment. This is done by recreating (simulating) a typical, actual meeting of investors during which a few pre-screened companies seeking investment present their company, or “Pitch” the company, as a possible investment. These meetings follow the same basic agenda of three sections: the pitch, Q&A, and investor Discussion & Decision).</p>
<p>Who facilitates Pitch Club?</p>
<p>Pitch Club is organized by Kari Naone, TiE Oregon Executive Director and led by Tom Kingsley, a TiE Charter Member who is an investor and successful entrepreneur.</p>
<p>What to expect?</p>
<p>Each attendee who intends to pitch should prepare a five minute pitch presentation. (This can include a power point projection that will be presented from your computer.) Directly after pitching a five-minute Q&A will take place, followed by a five-minute Investor Discussion & Decision).</p>
<p>Those who attend pitch club will walk away with a better understanding of what investors look for in a pitch and how to answer the questions possible investor will ask. In addition, each presenter will receive a digital copy of their pitch and feedback from their peers and TiE Charter Members.</p>

<h1>What we're about</h1>
<p>For those in the desert on their entrepreneurial journey.</p>
<p>This group is a peer-to-peer boot camp for entrepreneurs who are tired of being stuck at the early stage level. We're here to offer support, encouragement, and advice to our fellow entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>There are a lot of groups out there for folks already established in business but this group is for those who are not yet there.</p>
<p>There is no judgement. Doesn't matter if you're a grandparent wanting to sell your own homemade jewelry or a recent college grad with a woke startup idea to change the world. You're welcome and you're supported.</p>

<p>Remember in the good old days — like way back in 2019 — when we used to get together for events in person? Well, that's not an option these days. But that doesn't mean that we still can't get together for a good old fashioned Portland Lunch 2.0. Virtually.</p>
<p>If you've been looking for the opportunity to reconnect with your peers in the Portland startup community, you're thinking about starting something, or you're new to the area and looking to meet some folks amidst this pandemic weirdness, please join us for a virtual Portland Lunch 2.0.</p>
<p>No agenda. No talks. Just lunch with the community.</p>
<p>And while we'd love to buy lunch for you like we used to, this time, there is no such thing as a free lunch. You'll have to bring your own.</p>

<p>Have an idea for a new venture, or need help growing your existing venture? Want to learn more about equity financing and the options available in Oregon? Join Laura Kubisiak and Ana Chaud for an interactive session on resources available to entrepreneurs looking to start a new business, as well as existing ventures looking for higher growth.</p>
<p>Laura Kubisiak is the Venture Catalyst for Washington County and will talk about the services and resources for early-stage entrepreneurs, as well discuss equity financing to raise capital. She will be joined by Ana Chaud, founder of Garden Bar. Ana successfully sold the business in 2019 and is now giving back to the entrepreneurial community in a variety of ways, including as a TiE Oregon angel investor and an Executive Partner in Elevate Capital. She’ll share her experience as an entrepreneur, as well as her thoughts on working with angel investors and venture capital firms.</p>
<p>Topics to be discussed:<br>
• The Venture Catalyst (VC) Network <br>
• The VC Services in Washington County<br>
• Equity Financing as part of the Funding Ladder<br>
• Types of Equity Investors<br>
• Local Venture Funds<br>
• Straight Scoop from Ana on being an Entrepreneur and an Investor<br></p>
<p>The focus is on traded sector, but all business are welcome!<br>
There will be plenty of time for questions.</p>
<p>Speaker Backgrounds:</p>
<p>Laura Kubisiak serves as the Venture Catalyst for Washington County. She is an “on the ground” resource for helping traded-sector companies start-up and scale-up. She meets one-on-one with entrepreneurs, assesses their business needs, and then connects them to people, programs and financial capital to help fuel their growth. Laura also leads programming to educate entrepreneurs and give them an opportunity to network with others in the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Prior to this role, Laura served as a senior executive in marketing, sales and business development at companies ranging from start-up to Fortune 500.</p>
<p>Ana Chaud started her career as a financial and business manager in the San Francisco Bay Area. In January 2014, Ana co-founded Garden Bar, the first fast casual, salad concept restaurant in the NW. In five years, Garden Bar grew ~600% in revenue and expanded from 9 to 120 employees. In 2019, Garden Bar was acquired by Evergreens, which provided Ana with a full circle experience – from concept to exit. Ana recently joined the Board at TiE Oregon and will share her insights on being an entrepreneur, as well as investing in new ventures through TiE Angels and Elevate Capital.</p>

<p>I (<a href="https://twitter.com/turoczy">https://twitter.com/turoczy</a>) have been looking for an excuse to user Twitter Spaces, the audio only Clubhouse competitor. And an idea dawned on my that was basically an audio version of Silicon Florist. What if I held a Spaces event where founders got to pitch their startup or startup concept to an audience?</p>
<p>We've had a number of amazing founders sign up to participate. Now, we need an audience to listen to their pitches. Won't you please join us?</p>
<hr>
<p>If you’ve got a startup to pitch at a future event — it doesn’t have to be tech — please sign up. We'll ask you to deliver a three minute pitch on your company. And then I may ask you a couple of follow up questions, but we won’t open it up to a full Q&A. So it should be a safe space. That means, even if you haven’t perfected your pitch, it’s a good environment to practice.</p>

<p>please join us each month for timely discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities. This month Naomi Derner CFA, Managing Director of Vantage Point Advisors will talk to us about company valuation.</p>
<p>Entrepreneurs seeking their first round of funding may be asked about their company’s valuation by potential investors. Most new founders have no experience or training in valuation, and may pick a number without any support or rationale, or accept a valuation suggested by an investor without understanding what it means.</p>
<p>In this workshop, we will help you prepare for these conversations.</p>
<p>-- Demystify the language and math used by investors around valuation.
-- Techniques for estimating the value of your company….even if you are pre-revenue.
-- Why your valuation matters, and why sometimes it doesn’t.</p>

<p>We know that investors often look for patterns, referrals and pedigree to make the investment process efficient, safely fitting into established norms.</p>
<p>The unintended consequence is that brilliant founders without the right connections are often passed over. This expresses itself in many ways but often we see that LGBTQIA+, Black, Latinx, and Native American founders are largely left out of the VC ecosystem.</p>
<p>Today, companies are creating specific, application based, Opportunity Funds - their goals being inviting more underrepresented founders into the global ecosystem. This looks like a diverse Investment Committee that includes members from both inside and outside of the investment institution, the goal being to review at early stage investments alongside growth investments.</p>
<p>The result? Underestimated founders have access to direct capital.</p>

<div class="description">
<p>Pitch Club is an event where entrepreneurs learn the criteria and methods used by real investors to evaluate their venture as a potential investment. This is done by recreating a typical investor meeting where a few companies pitch and receive feedback from real angel investors. These meetings follow the same basic agenda of an investor meeting with three sections: the pitch, Q&A, and investor discussion & decision.</p>
<p>Each attendee who intends to pitch should prepare a five minute pitch presentation. (This can include a power point projection that will be presented from your computer.) Directly after pitching a five-minute Q&A will take place, followed by a five-minute Investor Discussion & Decision).</p>
<p>Those who attend pitch club will walk away with a better understanding of what investors look for in a pitch and how to answer the questions possible investor will ask. In addition, each presenter will receive a digital copy of their pitch and feedback from their peers and TiE Charter Members.</p>
<p>Please note - this is not an actual investor meeting. It is a place to come before you pitch for real investment.</p>

<p>Please join us online for an all virtual PIE Demo Day, all from the comfort of your Web browser.</p>
<p>You do <em>not</em> need to be an accredited investor to attend. And you don't need to be in Portland, Oregon. Everyone is welcome. It's a community event and all aspects of the virtual demo day are free and open to the public.</p>
<p>If you're interested in participating in PIE Demo Day, there are three ways for you to do so. Each starts at 3:14PM Pacific Time on June 28, 2021:</p>
<p>Follow PIE on Twitter (<a href="https://twitter.com/piepdx):">https://twitter.com/piepdx):</a> Like last year, the PIE Twitter account will serve as the emcee for PIE Demo Day 2021. If you're interested in experiencing the event as we envisioned it, please make sure you're following our Twitter account as we take you through the run of show. Best of all, the event will be captured in a single thread so that you can reference — and share — it later.</p>
<p>Subscribe to PIE on YouTube (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/portlandincubatorexperiment):">https://www.youtube.com/portlandincubatorexperiment):</a> Interested in more of a "choose your own adventure" format? You're in luck, because we'll be uploading all of the demo day presentations to our YouTube channel as a single playlist.</p>
<p>Join the virtual trade show (<a href="https://www.airmeet.com/e/4783cf50-cec2-11eb-9d24-03639ec00847):">https://www.airmeet.com/e/4783cf50-cec2-11eb-9d24-03639ec00847):</a> Not every founder will be presenting on PIE Demo Day, this year, but you'll still get the opportunity to meet them and hear more about the companies they're creating. Join us for a virtual trade show to hear more from this year's founders.</p>
<p>We look forward to seeing you at PIE Demo Day 2021.</p>

<p>How often do you take the time to invest in yourself, especially if you're consistently labeled as "underrepresented"?</p>
<p>StartOut welcomes BIPOC, LGBTQ+ founders and allies to connect in a space designed to uplift diverse identities.</p>
<p>This networking and professional development event is to represent the underrepresented entrepreneurs out there; particularly those that are Black, Indigenous, Latinx, AAPI, people of color and our allies/supporters.
Breakout rooms with discussion moderators will lead safe-space conversations for how to keep the entrepreneurial spirit alive, challenges people of color experience while fundraising, leading/building an authentically diverse team, and how to activate your allyship to diverse founders.</p>

<div class="description">
<p>COVID has certainly impacted our lives in many, many ways. After positive experiences from working at home, a number of people are now looking to continue in a hybrid or remote work environment. As an employer, what are the legal implications that you need to consider in these new environments? How do you maintain your culture and sense of camaraderie? As an entrepreneur, what services/products can you offer companies to support their efforts as they struggle with these challenges?</p>
<p>Join us on Wednesday, December 1st to hear from three speakers who are dealing with these changes in the workplace, and learn what they are doing. You will hear from:
• A labor and employment lawyer discussing the legal implications of a hybrid or remote workforce.
• A Chief Experience Officer who will share culture/team building best practices and how they've changed when teams are remote and/or hybrid.
• A CEO of a local, small tech company that has gone totally remote. She’ll talk about how they made that decision, and what they've done to maintain team cohesiveness.</p>
<p>From this Lunch & Learn, you will gain insights, tools and creative ideas on how to thrive in a hybrid or remote work environment.</p>

<p>No agenda. No talks. Just (virtual) lunch with your community.</p>

<p>By the time you attend this session, PIE applications will be open! Have questions about the program? Looking for some guidance on the application itself? Wondering if this mentoring format is right for you? Cool. Let's talk about that. All of that.</p>
<p>Please join PIE for a question and answer session on the application process, our programs, startup accelerators in general, and the potential benefits for early-stage startups.</p>
<p>If you're the founder of an early stage startup that has a product of some sort, you should show up. Whether you're building a SaaS product, a hardware product, or a typical consumer product, PIE has a program to support you along your journey.</p>

<hr>
<p>There's a reason we call it the Portland Incubator Experiment.</p>
<p>In addition to our core efforts to assist founders who are building early-stage, product-based startups, PIE continually strives to rethink, reimagine, and experiment with new concepts each year that further creativity, innovation, entrepreneurship, and collaboration within the startup community.</p>
<p>This year is no different.</p>
<p>For 2022, we'll be taking on an experiment that reframes the role of the startup accelerator within the broader community. And explores ways that the impact of innovation can be more widespread, accessible, and beneficial beyond the startups and founders, themselves.</p>
<p>Sound interesting…? Please join PIE for a discussion about our latest experiment, some ideas for moving the experiment forward, and an opportunity for questions and critique of the concept itself.</p>

<p>Every product has challenges and risks that must be managed to ensure success, help turn your unknown risks into known ones through the FMEA process.</p>
<p>An MVP (Minimum viable product) is a basic, launch-able version of your product that supports minimal yet must-have features (which define its value proposition).</p>
<p>Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a methodology for analyzing potential problems early in the product development cycle where it is easier to take action to overcome potential issues, thereby enhancing reliability through design. The tool is used to identify relationships between process and product requirements and the potential for unacceptable outputs and their effects.</p>
<p>In this session you will:
Review the various forms of product risk analysis used in different industries.
Use a basic template to ensure all product challenges and risks are accounted for + managed with your teams.
Access a set of case-study examples to help ensure successful use of the tool in the future.</p>

<p>Pitch Club is an event where entrepreneurs learn the criteria and methods used by real investors to evaluate their venture as a potential investment. This is done by recreating a typical investor meeting where a few companies pitch and receive feedback from TiE Oregon Charter Members. These meetings follow the same basic agenda of an investor meeting with three sections: the pitch, Q&A, and investor discussion & decision.</p>
<p>What to expect?</p>
<p>Please minimally prepare for a 5-minute pitch. If time permits each person could get up to 10 minutes so be prepared for that as well. This can include a slides/ppt that will be presented from your computer. Directly after pitching, Q&A and discussion will take place.</p>
<p>Those who attend pitch club will walk away with a better understanding of what investors look for in a pitch and how to answer the questions possible investor will ask. In addition, each presenter will receive a digital copy of their pitch and feedback from their peers and TiE Charter Members.</p>

<p>Surprise! We're back and going forward monthly!</p>
<p>For our first event, we thought we'd open up the floor. If you have something cool you've been working on and want to share, bring it or share some pictures with us. Let us know if you're planning on bringing anything to make sure we have enough space for it. We'll have approx 10 tables to set up on.</p>
<p>Our friends at Autodesk are graciously hosting us at their office. Come in to the front door on Ankeny, sign in at the front desk, and take the stairs to the second floor. If you need the elevator, ask security to let you up. There is bike parking inside the building on the second floor as well.</p>

7:00 PM: Welcome, News, Recap on Makerforce by Shashi

<div class="description">
<p>Allie Magyar recognized the need for software like Hubb in the event space from her firsthand experience as an event manager. She felt so passionate about her idea that she used her own capital to build the product. Microsoft, believe it or not, was her first paying customer.</p>
<p>As more customers started using Hubb, Allie got to a point where she needed to scale the business. So, she went out and raised some money. Although…she didn’t just raise some money. In typical Allie fashion, she raised the most money that year for a seed-stage company.</p>
<p>"In 60 seconds, I knew I wanted to talk to Allie Magyar about her business idea after I saw her pitch at an event. I handed her my card, and we took a meeting the next day," said Nitin Rai, President of Elevate Capital and Chairman of TiE Oregon Angles.</p>
<p>In 2020, Allie sat down and talked with us regarding her journey thus far. We are excited now again to hear from Allie as she walks us through the last two years of her entrepreneurial journey including the successful exit to Intrado Digital Media, now Intrado.</p>
<p>Please join us as we hear Allie Magyar, Founder of HUBB share her entrepreneurial story - after the exit!</p>

<p>EDI (or DEI, JEDI, etc.) has become a buzzword that many still are trying to wrap their heads around: exactly, what, does, an, EDI, practitioner, do?</p>
<p>Hint: it is closely connected with Team Building, Innovation, and Leadership. It also has a lasting impact on Talent Acquisition and Retention, Competitiveness, and the Longevity of a Business. Watch this 3-minute video to get some ideas.</p>
<p>In this fireside chat, Sandra Hunter (she/her), Kjell van Zoen (they/them), and Zhou Fang (she/her) are going to share their stories, experiences and perspectives both as independent practitioners, business operators, and colleagues and peers for each other.</p>
<p>Important to note: just like any profession, all EDI and leadership practitioners share similarities and have differences at the same time. One does not fit all. Have a conversation, ask questions, process information, and find the practitioner(s) that speak to you and connect with your team.</p>
<p>Sandra Hunter (she/her) is a Women’s Empowerment Coach and an advocate for cross-generational collaboration and mentorship with a focus on empowering women of color. She has 19 years of experience as an English and Creative Writing professor and her own experiences with race and gender bias led her to create Wild Women Leaders of Color. Her work offers a holistic approach to professional development through somatic stress release and story-healing techniques.
She’s also an award-winning author of three books that highlight social injustices and amplify young women’s voices. Her ultimate vision is to equip the next generation to combat racism and gender bias, creating a more inclusive society.</p>
<p>Kjell van Zoen (they/them) is a non-binary, multicultural, organizational culture nerd who loves to inspire people towards being less racist, sexist, ableist, ageist, homophobic, transphobic, and the intersectionality of all of those plus more. Combined with their background in business and entrepreneurship, Kjell enables organizations, teams, individuals, and leaders to develop efficient, resilient, agile, and equitable operations and communications systems.</p>
<p>Zhou Fang (she/her) is the founder and principal practitioner of Intersectional Group LLC, a leadership and equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) consulting practice with a focus on intersectionality, empathy and compassion, as well as curiosity.</p>
<p>Zhou is an advocate for pay transparency and equity, immigration reform and climate justice, as well as a committed ally for the LGBTQ+ and Indigenous communities.</p>

<p>Welcome All Founders and Tech Pros</p>
<p>• What we'll do
You will drink coffee (and tea for those who are recovering caffeine addicts) and talk with other great founders and companies in our local area.</p>
<p>• What to bring
Nada. Just a friendly demeanor and willingness to meet new great founders and talk about your project.</p>
<p>• Important to know
This is REALLY not the place you want to come if you are looking for sales leads. This event is a place to meet and share your startup journey and talk about your project. While we appreciate all the members of our community, network marketing and sales reps will find many short unuseful conversations in this crowd. Thanks for understanding.</p>

<p>Founders and entrepreneurs possess a lot of the same characteristics like motivation, passion, curiosity and risk-taking that inspire them to start and run a new business. Yet, the pathways to entrepreneurship are wildly different and each faces a diverse set of challenges along the way.</p>
<p>For our first PubTalk of 2024, Oregon Entrepreneurs Network is excited to bring to the stage three winners from the OEN Entrepreneurship Awards to share their own origin stories, the resources, and people who have helped them along the way, what has worked for them, and where they plan on going next.</p>
<p>We welcome entrepreneurs at all stages to join us for this interactive conversation – whether to commiserate and show solidarity with your peers or to find out what it’s like launching and growing a business in our community.</p>
<p>Cost: $15 for OEN members; $25 for non-members</p>

<p>Due to weather, PSU has shut down their campus, and therefore we're moving the Cleantech Challenge pitch competition event from in-person to Zoom. We're still very excited to hear what the students have been cooking up, so please follow these steps to join:</p>
<p>RSVP to the Zoom invite by clicking through this link
Assemble your favorite frosty weather snacks and drinks
Sign on to the Zoom at 5:30 pm today
Kick back, enjoy, and participate!</p>
<p>Apologies for the last-minute heads-up. The school's decision is out of our hands, but we're so grateful to Abigail and the rest of the PSU Center for Entrepreneurship team for coming up with a workaround that will keep the program moving and everyone else safe and cozy at home. See you soon!</p>

<p>If you are a Startup founder.
If you are working in a Startup.
If you are considering a Startup.
If you know someone who is working at a Startup.</p>
<p>Then this group and event are for you!</p>
<p>The truth is Startups are hard! They are hard to build, they are hard to work at, they are hard to sell. There really isn't a part of it that's not hard. That said it's one of the most exciting and invigorating things you'll ever do. It also means you need to hang around others that are doing it also!</p>
<p>We Get It!</p>
<p>So... Come lift a glass to the life we live and the trials we suffer to create something great!</p>
<p>To be clear, this is an open invite to the Startup tribe. This group is inclusive and wants to pull in the broad range of people in our area building startups.</p>
<p>That DOES NOT mean service providers who simply wish to sell their services. RESPECTFULLY, DON'T COME IF THAT IS YOUR AGENDA.</p>

<p>Pitch Club is an event where entrepreneurs learn the criteria and methods used by real investors to evaluate their venture as a potential investment. This is done by recreating a typical investor meeting where a few companies pitch and receive feedback from TiE Oregon Charter Members. These meetings follow the same basic agenda of an investor meeting with three sections: the pitch, Q&A, and investor discussion & decision.</p>
<p>Who facilitates Pitch Club?</p>
<p>Pitch Club is organized by Kari Naone, TiE Oregon Executive Director and led by Tom Kingsley, a TiE Charter Member who is an investor and successful entrepreneur.</p>
<p>What to expect?</p>
<p>Please minimally prepare for a 5-minute pitch. If time permits each person could get up to 10 minutes so be prepared for that as well. This can include a slides/ppt that will be presented from your computer. Directly after pitching, Q&A and discussion will take place.</p>
<p>Those who attend pitch club will walk away with a better understanding of what investors look for in a pitch and how to answer the questions possible investor will ask. In addition, each presenter will receive a digital copy of their pitch and feedback from their peers and TiE Charter Members.</p>
<p>Interested in sponsoring Pitch Club - please contact <a href="mailto:Kari.Naone@oregon.tie.org">Kari.Naone@oregon.tie.org</a>.</p>

<p>Gives entrepreneurs a crash course in how to build a ClimateTech* Startup. 45Camp JumpStart provides a concentrated 3-day weekend with training, mentorship and connections to let you explore the idea of building a ClimateTech Startup. You’ll also see examples of VertueLab Entrepreneurs who are making it in ClimateTech. VertueLab is a ClimateTech non-profit that is focused on helping Pacific Northwest ClimateTech entrepreneurs achieve their goals.</p>
<p>Ideas come from anywhere, and individuals with those ideas often don’t have the entrepreneurial awareness, tools, or guidance to get started in their exploration. Also, entrepreneurship is new in many communities and they need a jumpstart to gain the right knowledge and connections to move forward.</p>
<p>The best way to discover, learn, and explore entrepreneurship is through a hands-on approach and meeting others that are building technology and can explain by showing. JumpStart Weekends are designed to be a comfortable space to gather curious individuals and introduce them to tools and methods they can use to explore their ideas and get instant feedback and mentorship, all packaged over a weekend.</p>
<p>Although it's in our mission to address the impacts of climate change, entrepreneurship is for everyone. We want to increase access to entrepreneurship, and provide the tools and knowledge to everyone so that we are all part of the solution. So no prior knowledge of ClimateTech is required, all you need is an idea and the curiosity to know more and explore in a weekend of fun, we encourage you to apply!</p>

<p>This month we are back at Taborspace. It's been nearly 5 years since we held a meetup in this space so we decided to come back.</p>
<p>We will do our best to provide some signage so people can identify the group more easily. We've heard you and know that it's a bit awkward to ask, "Are you here for the meetup!" when there's nothing to identify the group.</p>
<p>As always, be there thinking about ways you can help your fellow founders. No selling, no solicitations, just good conversations!</p>
<p>See you there!

<p>About founder.coffee:
As a business owner, you are faced with many challenges. You're forced to make decisions every day that could make or break your business. founder.coffee is a way to network with other entrepreneurs to allow free-flowing information with the intent to collaborate and help each other. So often we're challenged and there's very little we can do to express our challenges with the people we work with or the people we care about. Think of founder.coffee as your own personal support group for business owners. We're all here to help!</p>
