<p>The seeds for 'From Side Project to Startup' were sown at a session of early May's Bar Camp Portland. The conference generated a good amount of buzz, and brought up more questions than the time could answer.</p>
<p>On September 12 and 13, 'From Side Project to Startup' will focus on the resources, planning, and above all initiative needed to make idle thoughts, plots, plans, and what-ifs come to fruition.</p>
<p>The event is crystallized around several 'seeded' sessions, but the BarCamp-style 'unconference' sessions led by participants are the meat-and-potatoes of the weekend.</p>
<p>You'll notice the schedule includes a lot of 'schmooze,' snack, break and party time. With this as well as the unconference time to meet and discuss with people, it's a goal of 'From Side Project to Startup' that a network of interested startups will form to provide each other with peer support and accountability. You can do it, keep going!</p>
<p>As always, Legion of Tech events are free to participants, so please come share, experience, and enjoy the community we're all part of.</p>

<div class="description">
<p>Join Oregon's entrepreneurs Thursday evening March 19th at 5:00 PM at NedSpace (920 SW Third, between Taylor and Salmon) to explore and answer the question "What Would Your Startup Do With $250,000 in 2009?"</p>
<p>In the last 6 months the economy, access to capital, the cost of talent and the opportunities for innovation have all changed. We think it’s time for the relationship between entrepreneurs and the State of Oregon to change, too (the state needs jobs & entrepreneurs need capital!).</p>
<p>Hear stories of successful, local homegrown companies that have either bootstrapped or raised funds and then grown themselves to success.</p>
<p>Most importantly, though, the goal of this event is to prove to the State of Oregon that there are enough jobs, compelling ideas and entrepreneurs to warrant an immediate investment of $100,000,000 for start ups that want to hire local talent.</p>
<p>We are working to raise a $100M fund that makes small investments in Oregon-based companies who hire Oregon-based employees. Now, in 2009. Not next year or some point in the future. In growing these new startups, we are investing in innovation, creating jobs and building Oregon’s brand with innovators and entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>Please be prepared to answer the following questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Could your company hire $250,000 worth of Oregon-based talent in 2009 to get it to the next level?</li>
<li>What could your company achieve during 2009 with a $250,000 investment?</li>
<li>How many new jobs would be created if 400 new Oregon startups were funded?</li>
<li>How would you like to see $100,000,000 invested in Oregon startups?</li>
</ul>
<p>Brought to you in part by NedSpace, Oregon Entrepreneurs Network, Reference Capital, Software Association of Oregon and Starve Ups.</p>
<p>NedSpace is proud to host an Oregon entrepreneurial startup event during this unparalleled time of economic chaos.disruption. Be a part of this unparalleled movement!</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>The StartUp Exchange is about bootstrapping in the creation of a software company followed by organic, grassroots growth. Instead of a formal Board of Advisors, we are like a Board of Peers. Our events are for tech startup executives only - sorry services providers you can't attend.</p>
<p>This month's Featured Tech Leader Attendees:
Doug Fieldhouse, CEO, Vesta</p>
<p>Meet with peers and people who have "been there" to discuss your most pressing business critical issues, ideas, and concerns. Feel free to pass word along to people. There is plenty of space and beer at Chime.</p>
<p>Request to join the StartUp Exchange group on the social network. It's an invite only group where ideas can be circulated between entrepreneurs.</p>
<p>Here's 4 helpful tips to successfully arrive there:</p>
<h1>It's on the eastside of the river</h1>
<h1>Park under overpass on Morrison or a nearby street</h1>
<h1>Follow signs leading from door on Morrison to freight elevator</h1>
<h1>Take freight elevator to 7th Floor</h1>

<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>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>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)
<b>Date</b>: Thursday, February 4, 2010
<b>Time</b>: noon to 1pm

<b>Driving</b>: Directions
<b>Parking</b>: Free parking in the parking garage next door to our building

Media contacts: Michael Coates, <a href="mailto:mcoates@startupweekend.org">mcoates@startupweekend.org</a>, 503.780.3945
Startup Weekend Portland set for November 12-14</p>
<p>Part of Startup Weekend, worldwide organization funded by the Kauffman Foundation, the Portland event supports startup development over a 54-hour weekend marathon.</p>
<p>Portland, OR – October 12, 2010 – Kicking off Global Entrepreneur Week, Startup Weekend Portland is open to entrepreneurs, developers, marketing folks, students, lawyers, angel investors, and anyone who wishes to spend an intense and intensely fun weekend building a team to start a new company.</p>
<p>Under the guidance and encouragement of business leaders, mentors and investors, attendees pitch their business ideas on Friday evening. The most viable ideas are chosen and teams begin to form organically. Over the weekend, teams are coached, guided and taught by members of the startup community to produce a working business model by Sunday. All teams present to a panel of judges, comprised of leaders within the local entrepreneurial community, and a winner is chosen.</p>
<p>Register by going to the web site. Ticket prices are $75 for members of the business community and $40 for students.</p>
<p>Notable companies who have emerged from Portland are CPusage, Mugasha Get Gathered, Life Grant, Startup River, and TreasuRecycle.</p>
<p>Startup Weekend is a non-profit, global organization supported by funding from the Kauffman Foundation. Startup Weekend events are currently held in over 100 cities in over 30 countries with new cities added every month. One event which created worldwide interest was Startup Weekend in Tel Aviv, Israel for Israelis and Palestinians. The two groups coming together and cooperating to build businesses created a positive buzz around the globe and especially in the Middle East.</p>
<p>Global Entrepreneurship Week runs from November 15 – 21 and will host 40,000 events in 100 countries involving 10,000,000 people.</p>

<p>An Open Source company landing $5million in venture funding from one of the nation's leading venture capital firms?</p>
<p>That's a story in itself. But when you realize it's a Portland firm - Puppet Labs, and that the investment was lead by Kleiner Perkins Caulfield, you will want to hear the story straight from the horse's mouth - CEO Luke Kanies of Puppet Labs, the makers of a leading open source data center automation and configuration management framework.</p>
<p>Joining him to talk about the opportunities and challenges of an open source start-up will be Stuart Cohen, CEO of CSI (Collaborative Software Initiative), a company that introduces a process for companies to collaboratively build software applications.</p>
<p>Open Source has typically been associated with altruism - software that is given away free and is open to modification by users. The concept became a household word when Portlander Linus Torvalds developed the Linux operating system. Now the list of Open Source and Free Software today includes cutting edge solutions to large scale problems in multiple domains. From languages to runtimes, cloud infrastructure to databases, the best solutions are open-sourced. Leading companies are building on top of open-source components, while giving back to the community. But open source is not just about being cost-effective,it is becoming the key to innovation.</p>
<p>How do open source start-ups thrive in this eco-system? Come and learn from the founders of two innovative start-ups!</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>About SoothieSuckers: <a href="http://www.soothiesuckers.com">www.soothiesuckers.com</a>
Soothie Suckers delivers good health in great tasting, all-natural, herbal, freezable treats! Soothie Suckers come in three formulas: Immune Booster, Cold Fighter and Sore Throat Relief. "It's the cool way to feel better."</p>
<p>Marietta Harrison - Soothie Sucker's Founder, CEO, & Mom
Marietta Harrison is a true "mompreneur." About 15 years ago, before most pediatricians stopped prescribing antibiotics for many common ailments, Marietta lost faith in the medical community. Relying on her own research and input from friends and fellow parents familiar with natural medicine, she began creating her own herbal remedies and mixing them with fruit juices to help treat her own children.</p>
<p>Years later, while brainstorming with her husband, musician Michael Allen Harrison, and his sister, they came up with the idea to put natural medicines into ice pops. As they began to move forward with their idea, they were amazed at the lack of products available to treat children for colds and other illnesses. Marietta's experience with adding herbal medicines to her children's fruit juice helped them develop a great tasting and effective product - and Soothie Suckers were born.</p>

<p><strong>Please note new start time of 6pm - Show up by 6 so we can get this shit kicked off. Hard stop at 8pm; networkers/heavy drinkers/people who don't want to go home can take it to the bar after that.</strong></p>
<p>Want to practice your startup pitch in front of people who've done it before? Crave the harsh criticism of your peers? Need the validation of seeing what works and what doesn't in other pitches?</p>
<p>Bring your 3 minute pitch. Put your name in a hat and if it gets picked, you're on. Powerpoints discouraged - just pitch. Then, answer questions and listen to painfully honest feedback from a panel of so-called experts.</p>
<p>The first rule of Pitch Club is you HAVE TO PITCH.</p>
<p>The second rule of Pitch Club is you HAVE TO PITCH. It doesn't have to be your startup - pitch your blog, your ideas for turning cat feces into gold, or your plan for world domination.</p>
<p>More rules as we think of them.</p>
<p>FAQ:
Q: Who are these so-called experts and what are they going to do to me?
A: Your pitch will be evaluated by tech entrepreneurs and people who pitch for a living. They are your superiors.</p>
<p>Q: What about NDAs? Someone's going to steal my idea!
A: There are no NDAs - use your best judgment about what to talk about and what not to. Also, remember the first rule of fight club - don't talk about fight club. We're all on the honor system here.</p>
<p>Q: My pitch is more than 3 minutes - can I have more time?
A: No.</p>
<p>Q: Will it be catered?
A: Hell no. You know what's in the lobster bisque.</p>
<p>Q: Can anyone critique a pitch?
A: No, only the panel.</p>

<p>Vision planning for people who want to do something for a community.</p>
<p>Do you not yet have a vision statement written out, or would you like to tweak or revise? And do you say things like, "I'm hoping someone will want to contribute to my project: it is for the public good"? Then this workshop is for you.</p>
<p>Saturday, September 20th, 10am-12pm. Alex Linsker, Catherine Poole, and Russ Finkelstein will be the main facilitators and coaches of the workshop.</p>
<p>The main questions about your vision: Where are you coming from? What phrasing describes the reason why you’re doing this?</p>
<p>If related questions come up organically, we’ll explore. These questions are where groups like “Collective Agency” started.</p>
<p>Whether a website, open source project, discussion group, nonprofit startup, or something else, the main focus of the people who show up will be for the benefit of a group or groups of people (the "community"). We’ll have fun and develop a vision planning community of our own.</p>
<p>In 2 hours we will meet-and-greet (go around and say what we’re working on and what we’d like to happen with it), have a brief overview, then invest most of the time in one-on-one coaching in 15 minute sessions.</p>
<p>Coaches will each bring a vision plan for something they’ve done.</p>
<p>This event is free of charge. Coaching/mentoring/skill-sharing will be available here in the future with both free and paid options.</p>
<p>Please RSVP. Plancast is best, so people can see you're coming. Email <a href="mailto:alexlinsker@gmail.com">alexlinsker@gmail.com</a> or tweet @alexlinsker with any questions.</p>

<p>Presented by Eric Migicovsky.</p>
<p> Hardware is hard. At least that's what people always say. Building a hardware startup requires a broad base of technical knowledge, from electronics and manufacturing experience to aesthetic and interface design. But Eric Migicovsky chose to start a hardware company after graduating from engineering because he wanted to see something he designed become a physical reality.</p>
<p>inPulse is a $150 hackable Bluetooth smartwatch. It connects to your smartphone and displays notifications like incoming emails, calls, and calendar alerts right on your wrist. After launching an SDK, 3rd party developers have started to create apps for inPulse.</p>
<p>In his talk, Eric will share some honest stories and anecdotes from various stages of product development. He'll also talk about the costs, timeframes and failure modes of hardware startups.</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>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>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>OEN is redefining the meaning of "hackathon" with our first-ever OEN Pitch & Putt at McMenamin's Edgefield on Wedneday, Oct 3.
Get ready to hack around the 12-hole Edgefield pub course with your fellow Oregon and SW Washington entrepreneurs and other leaders in Oregon's entrepreneurial scene. Come share your startup stories while holding a McMenamin's beer in one hand and a club in the other! Can you do this without spilling? We will see!</p>
<p>At the beginning and end of the 12-hole course sits the lovely Distillery Bar. This is a great place to grab an additional drink...or two when the tournament ends at 5 PM.</p>
<p>Get registered today and let's have some fun! Oh, and if you happen to forget your putter, no worries because you can rent them for only $2 at the course! SCORE! (Hopefully you won't be saying FORE.)</p>
<p>Already have a 4-some and want to play? Let Kirsten Ringen know! <a href="mailto:kirstenr@oen.org">kirstenr@oen.org</a>.</p>

<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>Tiny Startup Camp is an event helping to explore, educate, and motivate people to create Tiny Startups--defined as small, highly scalable, non-funded companies.

The second day is a workshop format, with on-site facilitators giving hands on help while attendees actively implement the steps necessary to get a live test site up and running. With experts in paid search, SEO, WordPress, monetizing strategies, story telling, and audience definition, it's sure to help a wide range of people, from budding entrepreneurs, to already launched startups interested in testing and creating new product lines.

<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>We decided to create our own open meetup to discuss and learn about the Internet of Things. We encourage the curious, the hackers the entrepreneurs and the executives who are engaging in this area to come join us to listen to talks, share in conversation and networking. Each session we will have talks, "show and tells "and space to hack and network with others. Modelled on two phenomenally influential and successful groups, Mobile Monday and the catalytic Silicon Valley Homebrew Computer Club, we hope that we too can enable fun and exploration with this new technology area.</p>

<p>Everyone who's interested in learning about, using, or creating new technologies for self-tracking is invited to join us at our <strong>Quantified Self Show-and-Tell Meetup at the Nike+ Accelerator</strong> (1714 NW Overton St) at 6 pm on Wednesday April 17.</p>
<p>QS Show-and-Tell Meetups feature first-person, personal experiments and experiences in self-tracking, as well as plenty of time for informal conversation and networking. Besides our QS community, we're inviting the startup founders at the Nike+/TechStars Accelerator to join the mix and share their personal stories too. Let me know if you're willing to be one of the presenters. We'll have an agenda up soon.</p>
<p>With two events this month -- the QS Co-Laboratory on April 9, and the QS Show-and-Tell on April 17 -- you can really top up your idea tank with exciting technology developments and interesting personal connections. See you there!</p>

<p>Last year we gathered weekly to share useful business tips that could be implemented immediately. In 2013 our workshops are changing to a new monthly format. This time we’ll gather monthly to share lessons learned working with a Portland-based business and present the results of our work in the form of a case study.</p>
<p>Each month will feature a different local business.</p>
<p>Why should you join us?</p>
<p>If you can identify with any of the following scenarios, you should stop what you’re doing and reserve yourself a seat for an upcoming CAKE:</p>
<p>You have a great idea for a business.
You have just started developing a business.
You have a hobby you want to make money from.
You own an existing business and are feeling overwhelmed.
You’re just a really awesome person who enjoys eating cake (the edible kind).</p>
<p><em>Don’t take our word for it, people really like us…</em></p>
<p>“Since the first CAKE workshop that I attended, I’ve gone back as often as my schedule allows. The two hosts, as well as all the participants have great input and advice to offer, and they offer somewhat unconventional advice on how to start up a business with a more ‘boot-strap’ approach.“
-Grant Bernard (Blurble)</p>
<p>“CAKE provides, not just vague conceptual pieces of inspirations, but tangible information in order for you to confidently and with ease take the next step to grow your business.”
-Akiko Oguchi (5th Season: Clothing Reborn)</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>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>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>

<div class="description">
<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> Startup Weekend focused on making entrepreneurship more accessible to everyone. Our mission is to create an environment where anyone can innovate together. We're focusing on accessibility to provide better access for people with disabilities and fluid collaboration amongst every participant. An appropriate accessible environment with the necessary auxiliary aids support services will be provided!</p>
<p> Startup Weekend’s a 54-hour event where aspiring entrepreneurs, developers, designers, marketers, product managers, and entrepreneurs of all abilities come together to share startup ideas, form teams, build products, and launch startups. Essentially, it’s a crash course in entrepreneurship that lets you experience what it’s really like to build and launch a startup.</p>
<p>Whether you have an idea for a new mobile app that will make your life easier or just want to learn more about entrepreneurship, we encourage you to attend.</p>
<p>Why? The statistics are clear, people with disabilities are not only less likely to be employed, but also less likely to pursue entrepreneurship. We hope that Startup Weekend Access will ignite your entrepreneurial spark!</p>

<h3>Come Celebrate our new Office!</h3>
<p>After Portland startup Geoloqi joined Esri in 2012, our office has grown from 6 to 20 people and our current space didn't fit everyone! This year, we found an awesome new space downtown and moved into a new, permanent location. Now that we're all settled into our new space, we'd love to invite you to join us in celebrating growth, community and all things geo! We'll have Legos, toys, and even a custom-built Settler's of Catan board for you to play! Feel free to bring other board games if you'd like.</p>
<h3>RSVP!</h3>
<p><a href="https://esripdx-officewarming.eventbrite.com">RSVP on EventBrite</a> so we can make sure we have enough drinks and light snacks (gluten free) for everyone! We are using Eventbrite to track RSVPs, if you know you are coming please reserve a ticket! In addition to celebrating Esri R&D Center Portland's new office, we will be celebrating Geoloqi's 4th year anniversary, as well as both Amber Case's and Patrick Arlt's birthday!</p>
<h3>Who is invited?</h3>
<p>The entire Portland tech community is invited, as well as friends and family of the Esri R&D Center team!</p>
<p>We have all of you to thank for helping us get where we are today. Special thanks to TiE, PIE, PSF, PDC for funding us, providing mentorship and being patient with our crazy vision this entire time. It's been 4 years since Geoloqi started, and almost 2 since we've been a part of Esri!</p>
<p>In town for Write the Docs, Monitorama or Webvisions? Feel free to join us as well!</p>

<p>What is Startup Weekend Access?
A crash course for those curious about entrepreneurship! You’re invited to attend Startup Weekend Access, a Startup Weekend focused on making entrepreneurship more accessible to everyone. Our mission is to create an environment where anyone can innovate together. We're focusing on accessibility to provide better access for people with disabilities and fluid collaboration amongst every participant. An appropriate accessible environment with the necessary auxiliary aids support services will be provided!</p>
<p>Everyone is welcome, and we’d love you to join us!</p>
<p>What’s Startup Weekend?
Startup Weekend’s a 54-hour event where aspiring entrepreneurs, developers, designers, marketers, product managers, and entrepreneurs of all abilities come together to share startup ideas, form teams, build products, and launch startups. Essentially, it’s a crash course in entrepreneurship that lets you experience what it’s really like to build and launch a startup.</p>
<p>Whether you have an idea for a new mobile app that will make your life easier or just want to learn more about entrepreneurship, we encourage you to attend.</p>
<p>Why? The statistics are clear, people with disabilities are not only less likely to be employed, but also less likely to pursue entrepreneurship. We hope that Startup Weekend Access will ignite your entrepreneurial spark!</p>

<p>Workfrom Wednesday comes back to the East Side to try something new!!</p>
<p>This week we'll be going to a Portland, OR and Workfrom staple and favorite <a href="https://workfrom.co/water-avenue-coffee">Water Ave Coffee</a>. They have sandwich, bagels, salad, oatmeal, and yogurt as well as some of the best coffee in the city. We try to support each location that supports us by buying something. So come hungry, in need of a coffee, and ready to get some work done with awesome people.</p>
<p>A lot of people wanted to go get drinks after Workfrom Wednesday, so that is exactly what we will be doing. Around 4:00, we will move from Water Ave Coffee to Bunk Bar right next door for drinks and food. For anyone who has not been, bunk has some of the best sandwiches in the city. To note, Bunk has happy hour from 3:00-6:00 giving $1 off all well drinks and beers.</p>
<p>You can find out more about Water Ave Coffee and why it's awesome on their <a href="https://workfrom.co/water-avenue-coffee">Workfrom page</a>.</p>

<p>Coffee w/ Co-Founders is a casual meet-up meant to foster conversations about what it's like to be a Founder of a new business. Why complain to your spouse about the challenges around your business when other people out there can relate with what you're going through. Come back, drink some coffee or tea, and have a great conversation. Who knows where it will lead?</p>

<p>When you are at the Idea stage, it's not likely that investors will be willing to invest. Fortunately, there are other sources of funding that are available for early stage funding. 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>Small Business Quickbooks Accounting Workshop: Have a fulfilling business but lost when it comes to accounting? Come learn Quickbooks basics hands on at this 2-day split workshop with Renee Trump of Pasaban Accounting! If you have a laptop, feel free to bring it along and follow the workshop with your own real numbers - this way, you will have made great progress with your business by the end of the workshop. In the event that you don't have a laptop, come join us nonetheless and learn how to get a strong handle on your finances! Register now to ensure you have a spot! Seats are limited to ensure that all participants receive direct attention.</p>
<p>IMPORTANT DATE & TIME INFO: The workshop is split between Monday, October 13th and Thursday, October 16th from 6:00pm-8:00pm each day. The Eventbrite interface is not conducive to that format for dates and times, so the event above does say Oct. 13 at 6:00pm - Oct. 16 at 8:00pm. This is not a 3-day event, but rather is a 4 hour workshop divided between two evenings. The registration admits to both days as they are consecutive and not alternative dates.</p>
<p>Forge Portland is hosting the workshop and is located in the Tiffany Center at 1410 SW Morrison St., Suite 850. For $99, Renee Trump and Forge Portland are offering you the opportunity to get your small business accounting on the right track with Quickbooks.</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>

<p>There may be remodeling going on at TiE Pearl/ISITE, but Pitch Club must go on!</p>
<p>Join us for the last TiE Oregon Pitch Club of the year, and the last one before TiE PitchFest 2014!</p>
<p>Our featured speaker is Tom Sperry, Managing Director at Rogue Venture Partners, and he will talk about what investors are looking for in a pitch. There will of course be plenty of opportunity for Q&A as well, so bring your questions!</p>
<p>After Tom's talk, we will be practicing pitches and you will get constructive and actionable feedback from attendees. If you have a slide deck, put it on a USB memory stick so we can project it (from a Windows laptop); or do a pitch without slides.</p>
<p>Take this last opportunity in 2014 -of course we will be back in 2015- to test drive and fine tune your pitch at Pitch Club, especially if you are thinking of competing in TiE PitchFest!
(Did you apply for PitchFest yet...? <a href="https://oregon.tie.org/event/40/tie-pitchfest-2014">https://oregon.tie.org/event/40/tie-pitchfest-2014</a> )</p>

<p>When most people imagine a tech startup’s office they probably conjure up glossy stereotypes: an open workspace, maybe in a converted warehouse, with modern design and amenities from beer on tap to a ping pong table.</p>
<p>In reality, we know you’re running lean and working out of your garage or perhaps even a local tech incubator. But how do you make the giant leap into leasing your own new space?</p>
<p>Local real estate experts Ajay Malhotra of CBRE, Kristin Hammond of Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) and Peter Andrews of Melvin Mark have joined forces to help you navigate the murky waters of commercial real estate! Join us for Real Estate for Startups 101 on Thursday, November 20 from 4--6pm.</p>
<p>You will:</p>
<p>Learn about the current market, building types and locations</p>
<p>Set realistic timelines for finding a new space</p>
<p>Understand the true cost of a lease</p>
<p>And more!</p>
<p>We’ll allow plenty of time for discussion with the experts so you can find answers to all your questions about commercial real estate.</p>
<p>The event is free and refreshments are provided, but please RSVP.</p>

<p>The 1 Million cups weekly meetings are a great opportunity for people and founders to connect.</p>
<p>Each week we invite a founder of a local startup or unique local business to give a short presentation. Then we follow up with a productive guided Q & A from the audience. Founders learn great insights about the businesses and the audience learns from people making great ideas happen in our exciting Portland startup scene.</p>
<p>During the month of January we are focussing on Female Founders. In February we bring in Foodie Founders. Stay tuned for March's theme!</p>
<p>No registration needed, no pretense allowed, just great coffee, conversation and connections every week. Come on by.</p>

<p>New Year's Resolutions don't work. Chance favors the prepared. We're grabbing every opportunity by the scruff of the neck and making every minute count. Portland startups are claiming success for the New Year. January 10th the members of Portland's startup scene are getting together to kick off the New Year Portland style!</p>
<p>We will have a hosted bar with great beer and wine, along with a buffet and awesome music!</p>
<p>There are so many great groups, organizations and meetups in Portland that it's easy to get lost and only meet a small portion of this huge community. This will be the best chance to meet the up-and-comers, the recent stars and the new players on the scene.</p>

<p>FailPDX was created out of direct response to a lot of the meetups and conferences that seemed to be focused on all of the good things about being part of startup and taking chances. The truth is, success is a unicorn. FailPDX was created to remind people that failure is inevitable. This group is a place where everyone can come together to listen and share their failure stories.</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>Well, it's been quite a May for Portland. First, President Obama swung by. And now, the Smartest Man in the World, Saul Colt will be in town, too. </p>
<p> </p><p>Only Saul will be way more accessible.</p> <p><br>Who is Saul? In his career he has been named as one of the iMEDIA 25: Internet Marketing Leaders & Innovators as well as been called one of Canada’s best community builders/experiential marketers. NYT Best selling author and Internet Pioneer Chris Brogan once referred to Saul as “exactly who you want representing your company” and that message has been echoed by media properties ranging from Inc to Forbes Magazine. </p> <p>In a previous life Saul was the first international employee of Zipcar and the person responsible for launching Zipcar into the Canadian marketplace, was a key person in the growth of FreshBooks.com (The #1 Cloud Accounting service for Small Business Owners) and even knows what it is like to work for a large corporation from his time in a leadership role at Rogers Communications. On top of all that Saul is also a Professional Speaker and Consultant specializing in Social Media, Customer Service, Community Building and Word of Mouth Marketing. </p> <p>Whether you're an early stage startup or a well established business, Saul's unique perspective will have you rethinking how you spread the word about your company. Even if you don't care about marketing, he's just a great and entertaining speaker.</p>

<p>COST: TiE Members: FREE, Public: $25</p>
<p>Join us for another edition of TiE Oregon Pitch Club, the most educational pitch clinic in town! Our featured speaker for this edition is Brent Hieggelke.</p>
<p>Brent Hieggelke is the Chief Mobile Evangelist for Urban Airship and is responsible for uncovering and inspiring innovation with customers, app development and agency partners, mobile platform providers and the industry-at-large.</p>
<p>Before Urban Airship, Brent spent more than a decade helping brands optimize digital marketing initiatives in Marketing Executive positions at WebTrends, TouchClarity and Omniture. Most recently, Brent founded and launched Second Porch, the first Facebook-integrated social vacation rental site that was sold to HomeAway, Inc. in May 2011. Early in his career, Brent also co-founded New City, a media company in Chicago.</p>
<p>Brent has been awarded multiple marketing awards, and is a frequent speaker at both marketing and digital conferences. He is a member of the Mobile Marketing Association’s North America board and the International Executive Council of the Internet Marketing Association.</p>
<p>Once Brent is finished speaking, you will have the opportunity to practice your pitches with us. You can practice investor pitches, concept pitches, sales pitches, co-founder pitches, product pitches, elevator pitches, or any other pitch you can think of. Bring your pitch and pitch deck to receive actionable and valuable feedback from fellow entrepreneurs who have been through it or are going through it. You never know, there may be an investor or two sprinkled throughout the crowd.</p>
<p>Not fully comfortable pitching? Come be part of the audience and learn by watching and providing feedback to others. However, it pays not to just be a watcher; you will definitely get the most benefit from this event by getting up and practicing your pitch! Many went before you, lived to tell the tale (we don’t bite!) and got a lot of actionable feedback!</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>Join us for TiE Oregon's November edition of Pitch Club featuring Ryan Jenson CEO & founder of HoneyComb!</p>
<p>When: Nov. 5th 5:30pm - 8:30pm
Where: DeskHub, 334 NW 11th Ave., Portland, OR 97209
Cost: TiE Members: Free; Non-members: $25
Exclusive 20% Portland Startup Switchboard Promo Code: HONEYCOMB</p>
<p>Mr. Jenson has experienced-based knowledge of what it takes to get even the most difficult products to market. Founding and running a company that specializes in agricultural drones (in which regulation is still being decided by the U.S. government), Ryan and HoneyComb have had to learn how to pivot and adapt while still delivering value to customers and building their company. The insight that Ryan can provide to entrepreneurs and their startups is extremely valuable in today's highly saturated and ever-changing market.</p>
<p>Once Mr. Jenson is finished speaking, you will have the opportunity to practice your pitches with us. You can practice investor pitches, concept pitches, sales pitches, co-founder pitches, product pitches, elevator pitches, or any other pitch you can think of. Bring your pitch and pitch deck to receive actionable and valuable feedback from fellow entrepreneurs who have been through it or are going through it. You never know, there may be an investor or two sprinkled throughout the crowd.</p>
<p>Not fully comfortable pitching? Come be part of the audience and learn by watching and providing feedback to others. However, it pays not to just be a watcher; you will definitely get the most benefit from this event by getting up and practicing your pitch! Many went before you, lived to tell the tale (we don’t bite!) and got a lot of actionable feedback!</p>
<p>Speaker Bio:</p>
<p>Ryan is CEO & founder of HoneyComb which specializes in the development of drone technology and data services for precision agriculture. Over the past decade Ryan has contributed to a wide range of technology projects with the USDA, Department of Energy, National Science Foundation, Department of Defense, British Royal Navy, NASA and Fortune 500 companies. His experience encompasses agriculture, big data, remote sensing, aerospace systems, and software to name a few. Ryan holds a master’s degree in mechanical engineering; along with a bachelor’s degree and minor in electrical engineering that he received at age 19.

<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>

<b>Time:</b> Friday: 6 -10pm, Saturday: 9am -11pm, Sunday 9am -9pm<br>

<p><b>About Startup Weekend:</b> Startup Weekends are 54-hour events designed to provide superior experiential education for technical and non-technical entrepreneurs. Beginning with Friday night pitches and continuing through brainstorming, business plan development, and basic prototype creation, Startup Weekends culminate in Sunday night demos and presentations. Participants create working startups during the event and are able to collaborate with like-minded individuals outside of their daily networks. All teams hear talks by industry leaders and receive valuable feedback from local entrepreneurials. The weekend is centered around action, innovation, and education. Whether you are looking for feedback on a idea, a co-founder, specific skill sets, or a team to help you execute, Startup Weekends are the perfect environment in which to test your idea and take the first steps towards launching your own startup.</p>

<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.

<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>

<h3>FailPDX back in action!</h3>
<p><em>Please RSVP at <a href="http://goo.gl/wocFa4">http://goo.gl/wocFa4</a> so we have an accurate head count.</em></p>
<p>FailPDX will be kicking off the new year with a 4 person panel discussing the trials and tribulations of building a successful business. Each panel member will share their personal failures, what they learned from the experience, and answer any questions we may have. This FailPDX event is officially part of Portland Startup Week. Startup Week is a free, five-day celebration of our community that builds momentum and opportunity around entrepreneurship. The week is led by local entrepreneurs and hosted in amazing spaces all over town.</p>
<p>For those who may not be familiar with our group: FailPDX was created out of direct response to a lot of the meetups and conferences that seemed to be focused on all of the good things about being part of startup and taking chances. The truth is, success is a unicorn. FailPDX was created to remind people that failure is inevitable. This group is a place where everyone can come together to listen and share their failure stories.</p>
<p>If you are interested in speaking at or sponsoring one of our events, please email <a href="mailto:talk@failpdx.com">talk@failpdx.com</a>.</p>
<h3>Schedule:</h3>
<p>5:00 PM: Refreshments & Networking<br>
5:30 PM: Presentation followed by Q/A <br>
6:30 PM: Wrap things up<br></p>
<p><em>Please note the above schedule is subject to change and will include our panelist closer to event time.</em></p>
<p>Look forward to seeing everyone!</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>

<div class="description">
<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>

<p>And so the story goes…</p>
<p>…at the University of Oregon, Keeley and Erika were in their college apartment, scraping the bottom of yet another empty jar of peanut butter. As hungry college students and athletes, they ate a lot of peanut butter, and on this occasion, neither of them felt like biking to the store in the rain to buy more. So, they decided to try making their own! That day, Wild Friends was born.</p>
<p>More than four years have passed since the day they made that first jar. They’ve left their college apartment behind and are now based in Portland, Oregon. They’ve launched dozens of new flavors of nut butter and sell in thousands of stores across the country.</p>
<p>However, despite all these changes, a few things have stayed the same — most importantly, their passion for awesome tasting products, made with the healthiest whole ingredients they can find.</p>

<p>Have you ever had an idea for improving education? Here's your opportunity to transform your education ideas into action in 54 hours. Find the right people with complimentary skills and passion to work and learn with along the way. No tech skills required! Pitch your idea (or even better a problem/solution), then test it with real potential customers and receive coaching from industry experts in technology and education from the Portland Metro area. Join a community ready to help you take your concept to the next level!</p>
<p>We're looking for passionate educators, parents, students, developers, designers and business/non-profit professionals who want to make a difference in education now. Come learn the basics of founding and launching a successful education venture while solving real problems being experienced in Portland today.</p>
<p><b>Schedule</b></p>
<p>In 54 hours, participants share ideas, form teams, build products and launch education ventures. Startup Weekend EDU begins with open-mic, 60-second pitches Friday night that result in the formation of small teams around the best, most viable concepts. Teams spend Saturday and Sunday morning focusing on customer development, validating their ideas and building prototypes with the help of experienced coaches. On Sunday afternoon, teams demo their education solutions and receive valuable feedback from a panel of expert judges. All of the pitches on Friday and companies demoed on Sunday will be educator approved and designed to solve problems in the education space, broadly defined (not restricted to K-12 or other “formal” education).</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>Calling on tech entrepreneurs for a small business funding seminar!
Are you looking for funding for your proprietary technology? Please sign up!</p>
<p>Oregon Best funds and supports cleantech startups and we are hosting a series of small business funding seminars for SBIR/ STTR grants.<br>
This is a Lunch + Learn event - sign up here - best $10 you'll ever spend! 12 - 1:30pm Tuesday May 24th.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/lunch-learn-small-business-funding-seminar-tickets-25210896470">https://www.eventbrite.com/e/lunch-learn-small-business-funding-seminar-tickets-25210896470</a></p>
<p>We will start with a 10 min overview Oregon Best and what we do ( and explain what cleantech is) followed by a 30 min in-depth SBIR/ STTR presentation by expert Leon Wolf.<br>
We will give you an overview of the process, understand eligibility requirements and give free support in applying for grants for appropriate companies.</p>
<p>Many people get confused by the word cleantech. We want to clarify and shed light on the wide range of technologies that fall under this category.</p>
<p>The hope is that more people will:
a.) see themselves and their tech as possibly falling under the "cleantech" umbrella
b.) contact us about their technology
c.) seek eligibility and support in applying for an SBIR/ STTR grants.</p>
<p>Oregon Best invests at very early "risky" stages - before the technology has been proven.<br>
We then support startups in several ways by:
a.) Investing between $50k - $250 per startup
b.) Making Introductions / networking with key partners<br>
c.) Funding interns to work in their company
d.) Connecting co's to an experienced CEO or Entrepreneur-In-Residence to help them navigate growth, priorities, business plans, pitches
e.) Help with manufacturing / scale up through our partnerships
f.) showcasing the company at conferences, trade shows and BESTFEST
g.) Support with Government grants SBIR/ STTR</p>
<p>Please register to attend! Lots of great information to learn about and resources to help tech startups.</p>

<p>EMA & ERA Talk Trade on May 24. Join Us.</p>
<p>We are excited to present our first seminar of the year. Join us for a fun, informative evening featuring talks from three industry pros. Their combined topic is from an Idea to a Product: How to Start and Grow Your Business.
Take Your Business to the Next Level</p>
<p>This event is geared towards patent based businesses and start-ups, inventors, and people looking at new ventures in electronics manufacturing. The format is casual, with opportunities to network before and after. Hors d'oeuvres and a no-host bar are available, so grab a beer and stay awhile.
Meet People & Grow Your Network</p>
<p>We expect lots of faces from the electronics manufacturing industry, so be sure to bring your business cards. This is an excellent opportunity to meet new faces and reconnect with colleagues.</p>
<p>Three Expert Speakers</p>
<p>An Introduction to Intellectual Property
Dr. Laura Zager, patent attorney (more info)</p>
<p>"I've got a great idea for a business name, and just printed it on 3000 mugs!" "I think I need to get a patent so I'll be clear to make and sell my product." "Of course I own my company's logo—I paid a graphic designer to create it!" All of these statements represent misunderstandings of intellectual property law, which can trip up even the most conscientious of business owners. This talk will give a quick overview of the key areas of intellectual property law in the US, and will use case studies and examples to flag some of the most common pitfalls.</p>
<p>Financial, Business and Estate Planning Strategies for Business Owners
Diana Wojcik, patent valuation analyst (more info)</p>
<p>Covering incorporation choices, valuations, tax strategy, and continuity/succession plans, Diana will illustrate different options available to business owners and explain the costs, risks, and benefits of each, to help business owners plan ahead to maximize their gains and minimize their risks. Her talk will mainly address the needs of businesses based on patent or other IP, manufacturing, tech advisory/consulting, and privately owned businesses.</p>
<p>Getting it all Wrong: How I learned to Love the Lean Startup
Leo Frishberg, UX strategist (more info)</p>
<p>The Lean Startup takes an "action first" approach to exploring products, markets and business models. In theory this approach makes a lot of sense, but in practice it is fraught with challenges. In his talk, Frishberg leads the group through a couple of case studies in which the business got almost everything wrong, and was all the better because of it.</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>

and bring the joy of coding not only to your child but also youth who don't have access. Sign up for the camp and help youth who do not have the resources to enjoy a free coding camp through CodeVana’s Community Building initiative. The four camps offered are as follows:</p>
<p>CodeVana: Digital Game Explorers [July 5-8th]
In this summer camp, students are introduced to the joy of coding and programming through games, simulations and they will also learn to become digital creators by creating minecraft mods or digital newspapers/videos. They will present their work in an end of the week show and tell.
Students ages 7-10 have an option of full day camp or a half day camp.</p>
<p>CodeVana: Breakaway with Code & Things [July 5-8th] [July 18-22nd]
In this summer camp, 10-14 year old students will learn to code, make, play while using Internet of Things and integrate their understanding of math and science through computing/games as well as learning how their minds and brains work. This camp is experiential in nature and will focus on collaboration, and creation.
Middle Schoolers have an option of full day camp or a half day camp.</p>
<p>CodeVana: Girls Make Apps [July 11-15th]
Girls and women in the U.S. are avid users of computer technology, but they are significantly underrepresented in its creation. CodeVana is bringing a fun girls only camp organized by girls/women to help girls discover the joy of building, computer science, and coding. Girls will build Games, play with Internet Of Things, design and deploy Web & Mobile Apps in a collaborative and creative environment as well as explore science, math, and social aspects of women in technology. We invite middle school (7th-8 graders) and high school girls to join us. Girls will make Web Apps, Mobile Apps, and Game Apps in a collaborative and creative environment.</p>
<p>CodeVana: Startup Engineering [July 11-15]
High School students are invited to make their ideas into reality through building and making with computing. They will learn all the engineering and customer development skills to build a technology startup. On July 15th, students will pitch their ideas and prototypes to the community and win prizes to continue to pursue their ideas through a community vote.</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>

<p><strong>NOTE: We're going to cancel this due to the power outage in the Pearl.</strong></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>

<div class="description">
<p>Join us on Wednesday, December 6th when Founder and CEO of Ruby Receptionist, Jill Nelson participates in our monthly series, Confessions of an Entrepreneur.</p>
<p>Since founding the company in 2003, Jill has led Ruby to double-digit revenue growth every year, and last year sold the majority share of Ruby for $38.8 million to Updata Partners out of Washington D.C. Today, Ruby’s 340+ employees provide live receptionist service to 6,000 small businesses throughout North America. Jill’s unique vision of charming, professional receptionists enabled by leading-edge technology has built Ruby into a platform by which small businesses can deliver exceptional customer experiences over the phone and grow their companies.</p>
<p>Confessions of an Entrepreneur is a series that allows entrepreneurs to hear the highs and lows of what it takes to build a successful company – unfiltered and off the record!</p>
<p>This is always a fun and valuable event, so be sure to invite your friends and team members.</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>TiE Oregon, TiE Seattle, TiE Vancouver BC and TiE Rockies are coming together to host the first-ever TiECon Northwest in Portland Oregon on January 25-26th. This 1.5 day conference will bring together entrepreneurs and investors and will highlight three disruptive technology sectors – Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, Healthcare, and Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality/Mixed Reality.</p>
<p>The possibilities seem huge and there is tremendous hype, full of great buzzwords and slogans but for investors and entrepreneurs, key questions still exist regarding these technologies:</p>
<p>What is the value?
How can such value be unlocked?
Is now the right time?
What are the specific approaches, applications and markets that these technologies can be utilized in?
What do these sectors need in order to continue to grow?
Join us at TiECon Northwest as we bring together experts in these sectors for interactive panel discussions, keynotes, and opportunities to network with entrepreneurs and investors throughout the northwest.</p>
<p>PITCH NORTHWEST
The conference will end with a pitch competition, Pitch Northwest!</p>
<p>Pitch Competition Criteria
Pitch Northwest is available to pre-series A companies from all industries. The company must be headquartered in Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Idaho, or British Columbia. You must have a minimal viable product, must have customer validation and are looking for funding to scale.</p>
<p>Prizes</p>
<p>The over-all winner will receive a check for $3,000 --- we are still fundraising so this purse is very likely to increase!
The people's choice winner will receive a check for $1,000 - again, we are still fundraising so this purse is very likely to increase!
<em>THE DEADLINE TO SUBMIT APPLICATIONS IS FRIDAY DECEMBER 30TH</em></p>
<p>Application details can be found at <a href="http://www.tieconnorthwest.org">www.tieconnorthwest.org</a></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>Many entrepreneurs and administrators are event organizers themselves, utilizing event planning platforms like Meetup and Eventbrite to host their events.</p>
<p>Very few, however, are professional event organizers, yet need support when it comes to connecting with relevant sponsors to boost the marketability of their event and enhance their audience experience.</p>
<p>Our goal is to share best practices from leading event organizers in the community, and have an open forum discussion about how to streamline pre-event planning, sponsorships, and logistics.</p>
<p>Join us during PDX Startup Week!! This is a free event and food and drink will be included.</p>

<h1>Thursday, March 16th, 12PM - 1:30PM</h1>
<h2>CENTRL Pearl, 1355 NW Everett, Portland, OR</h2>
<h2>FREE</h2>
<p>This is the budgeting class you've been waiting for! With zest & humor, Lillian will help you figure out your personal budget and get past the overwhelm - this class is PARTICULARLY for start-up owners and tech/creative freelancers.</p>
<p>Many small business owners are great at managing their company's expenses, but end up ignoring their own personal money situation until it catches on fire. And even if you feel reasonably on top of your money, you'd likely benefit from a budget check-in. Lillian from <a href="http://www.ohmydollar.com" title="Oh My Dollar!">Oh My Dollar!</a> will walk you through a 90 minute crash course on crafting a quick-start budget for personal expenses based on your values. (And she won't sell you any products or overwhelm you with jargon!)</p>
<p>The class is totally free and open to the public, however, <a href="https://ti.to/oh-my-dollar/budget-like-a-badass">free RSVP is required to get a free budgeting zine to take home.</a></p>
<h3>"I learned that money stuff isn't as mysterious and terrifying as I thought it was!"</h3>
<p>-2016 Money Bootcamp Graduate</p>
<h3>"I would whole-heartedly recommend this class to anyone who ignores their bills in the mail. Take the class. Face your finances and make a plan!"</h3>
<p>-2016 Money Bootcamp Graduate</p>
<h3>"Taking Lillian's money class inspired me to make a plan to aggressively pay off my student loans! Made a plan to have them gone in 18 months! :sparkles: I'm tripling my payments & it feels sooooo good!"</h3>
<p>-2016 Money Bootcamp Graduate</p>
<h3>"I really appreciated Lillian's blunt, humorous honesty and ability to tell us what we really need to know instead of boring us with a finance talk."</h3>
<p>-2015 Money Bootcamp Graduate</p>

<p>You know the pain: there are so many features you want to build and bugs you want to fix, but there's not enough time to do it all. How should you prioritize? How can you align your product roadmap with your business goals?</p>
<p>We've all wasted time and money building things that nobody wanted, and we've neglected features and UX improvements that could've made a difference. The question is, how do we know what's the optimal way to use our development hours?</p>
<p>These are some of the topics we'll probably discuss:</p>
<p>• Jobs to Be Done (JTBD) framework to align features with business goals</p>
<p>• Scrum, Agile and Kanban frameworks to prioritize issues and manage dev teams</p>
<p>• How to incorporate user feedback into our product roadmap</p>
<p>• How to manage remote teams effectively</p>
<p>• The Lean way of testing assumptions to avoid building things that nobody wants</p>
<p>We're looking forward to sharing what I've learned from my mistakes building Billy, and learning from your experiences as well.</p>
<p>Coffee, tea and draft beer will be provided. Come hang out with other SaaS founders and share your story!</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>"411": Ten entrepreneurs will get five minutes to pitch the audience and then three minutes of questions about their idea. After the last pitcher has answered questions from the audience, attendees will then vote for the three (3) winners who will split the prize money equally.
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>
<p>Who: This event is the brainchild of Stephen Green @PDXStepheng, economist, entrepreneur & strong advocate of CHEATING to support small businesses. 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>Cost: Tickets are $22 with ALL PROCEEDS from ticket sales going directly to the three winners. Bring some extra cash to make sure you leave with some event swag.</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><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>This event will bring local experts who can help you get a clear perspective accounting choices and structures.</p>
<p>We plan to go over some very basic concepts as groundwork that can set a solid foundation. Things like;</p>
<p>• Basic accounting terms (asset, liability, revenue, Cost of goods sold, Operating Expenses, Gross profit, net profit, fixed expense, variable expense) • Basic accounting principles (measurement, matching, recognition, etc.)</p>
<p>• Balance sheet & Income statements (can’t fly without knowing what the instruments are saying)</p>
<p>• Cash-flow planning & budgeting.</p>
<p>• Profitability vs. solvency. The first doesn’t always mean the second.</p>
<p>• Capital requirements (equip, raw material, inventory, etc.)</p>
<p>• Cash-to-cash cycle</p>
<p>We also plan to do some hands-on exercises in Excel. So bring your laptops and get ready to get your fingers dirty in some exciting accounting. Ok, maybe that's a stretch but, it learning your way around these core principles and more and make a night and day difference in your Startup. That! is fun!</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>Step outside your daily thinking and get playful when thinking about users, brands and experience design. It’s easy to get excited about the potential of new technologies and lose sight of how these experiences meaningfully connect back to your end-users and the brand that delivers them.</p>
<p>The Starting With The Experience workshop uses a series of quick fire Human-Centered Design tools and hands-on activities for teams to learn and replicate following the session. Over the course of a few hours you will learn ways to build empathy, understand context, and make meaningful connections between people and services. Bring your competitive spirit to battle teams until one champion is declared!</p>
<p>If you are a CEO, VP, Director, Project Manager or if you're looking to learn how Human-Centered Design can help you solve big problems fast, then join us at the newly-opening CENTRL West End location for this high impact session.</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>Blockbuster. Kodak. Tower Records. Nokia. Taxi Industry. Compaq. These companies 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.

<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><i>Proudly hosted by PIE and PIE Shop in collaboration with Autodesk</i></p>

<p>We are excited to present two failed presenters for January.</p>
<p>Isaac Porras:
People turning to Kickstarter to fund their awesome ideas should take a lesson from Isaac Porras. He is the second most failed creator on Kickstarter, with nearly 30 failed projects. If you are planning to Kickstart a project you shouldn’t miss Isaac share his cringe worthy stories of continued Kickstarter fails.</p>
<p>Corey Guidry:
Imagine, having a solid head start in online food delivery services in a young tech city like Portland.
8 months before Caviar, Uber Eats and Post Mates were operating, Delivery Dudes had the open Portland market in it’s sights. What happened? With such a head start, you’d think Delivery Dudes would be thriving in Portland, instead the project failed.
Let’s learn about this business and hear this Fail first hand by one of the Portland Partners Corey Guidry.</p>
<p>Each presenter will speak for 7-10 minutes followed by Q/A there will be some time for socializing before and afterward.</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. Our mission is to enable and empower entrepreneurs who have been excluded from access to capital, networks, and resources, such as women, people of color, and LGBTQIA communities.</p>
<p>Our founder community learns a unique tactical and strategic fundraising methodology that develops critical skills and insights and addressing the fundamental internal barriers associated with an unequal experience of entitlement.</p>
<p>Founders gain confidence, competence, and capability as they lead their raise, break open critical influence networks and deliver innovative ventures that embrace a broader community of stakeholders in both investment and returns.</p>
<p>Together, we’re insisting on a more equitable landscape of opportunity and access for a greater diversity of founders.</p>
<p>Drinks and snacks will be provided.</p>
<p>WHO SHOULD ATTEND</p>
<p>All founders and future founders who are considering raising capital for their startup.</p>
<p>PRICING</p>
<p>This event is free of charge.</p>
<p>ABOUT THE SPEAKER</p>
<p>Sara Batterby has spent 20+ years launching and building companies in high growth emerging markets. Sara Batterby founded, funded and built Hifi Farms, one of Oregon's most progressive and visible cannabis brands. Prior to that she spent 20 years building and funding startups in the Bay Area. She has deep expertise on both the founder and investor side of early stage capital having developed portfolio and risk management strategies for seed stage investors and funds. She currently leads The Equity Capital Collective which advises founders and funds on raising money and expands access to capital for women, people of color and LGBTQ founders.</p>
<p>Examples of client achievements after working with Sara:</p>
<p>An Oregon biotech company raised $4M in Series A funding - oversubscribed by $1M after 90 days
A California cannabis retail company raised 2.2M in seed funding - oversubscribed by $6M
An Oregon food and beverage company raised $430k in seed funding - oversubscribed in four months

<p>Come judge the Text A Lawyer Battle Royal! Katia v. Kevin You decide who pitches in June to the crowd of silicon valley investors!</p>
<p>The Text A Lawyer co-founder team is preparing for an investor demo day event in the bay area in early June. We're looking to discern who should handle pitching and who should handle Q&A. We're planning to record things so we can replay all your helpful feedback (internal use only, promise).</p>
<p>We are going to follow the time format precisely:
10 minutes -- introduction</p>
<p>5 minutes -- Katia will pitch</p>
<p>10 minutes -- Katia's Q/A session</p>
<p>5 minutes -- Kevin will pitch</p>
<p>10 minutes -- Kevin's Q/A session</p>
<p>10 minutes -- Katia and Kevin will leave the room for the judges (you) to deliberate. Yes, we'll leave the recording on so we can listen later but we're hoping you can speak freely an honestly. -- We can take some tough love.</p>
<p>10 minutes -- We'll quickly tally the votes and announce who's doing what in at the Batchery.com demo day next month. Share a drink and snack with us - we'll stay around to chat.</p>
<p>TOTAL: 1 hour of your time means the world to us!</p>
<p>To show our appreciation we'll provide BEER/soda/water and chips/candy/hummus/celery type of refreshments and light snacks. Please email <a href="mailto:Kevin@textalawyerinc.com">Kevin@textalawyerinc.com</a> to confirm (so we know how much food/drinks to purchase).</p>
<p>Thank you,
K2 (Kevin and Katia)</p>

<p>(We realize that not every potential PIE or PIE Shop company can make it to Portland to ask their questions, face to face. But we still want you to have the opportunity to get those questions answered. So we'll be holding a virtual session to help get that done.)</p>
<p> </p><p>Thinking about applying to PIE or PIE Shop? 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 between the two programs 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.</p> <p>We're looking forward to seeing you on the interwebs.</p> <p>Already ready to apply? Here's a cheat sheet that will help you prepare your application: <a href="https://bit.ly/PIE2019cheatsheet" class="linkified">https://bit.ly/PIE2019cheatsheet</a></p> <p>(Meeting details will be shared with folks who RSVP.)</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>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>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>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>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>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>

<div class="description">
<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>

<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>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>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>Join PIE for a conversation with PIE alum Quincy Brown about how to create frameworks and strategies for equity within startups.</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>Feel free to submit (and upvote) questions ahead of time on Crowdcast</p>
<hr>
<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>TiE Women is dedicated to Embrace, Engage and Empower women entrepreneurs across the globe.</p>
<p>TiE Oregon is hosting its first TiE Women Pitch Competition on September 2nd. This will be a virtual event and the same as our regular Pitch Competitions, with one twist: all the participating companies must have a woman in their Founding team.</p>
<p>The winner will get the opportunity to attend the TiE Global Mega Pitch Competition in Dubai in December where they will compete for a $100k prize against women-led startups from all over the world. Three Runners-up will also be selected for an accelerator workshop.</p>
<p>Our Committee will review the applications and select six finalists (and two back-ups) to present on stage. We pair each of the finalists with a team of TiE Charter Members for coaching and mentoring in the run-up to the Pitch Competition. While using this resource isn’t mandatory, we have found that the most successful companies engage with and use the feedback from their “champions.”</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>

Allie founded Hubb at first to use within Dynamic Events to help scale her own team, and brought the product to market in 2015, realizing there was a global need and market demand for what she had built.</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>or many startups, getting press coverage — earned media — can be one of the most cost effective means of promoting products and engaging with new users. But how are you supposed to actually go about getting that type of coverage? 🤔</p>
<p>Let's start demystifying that whole process with one of the most simple — yet poorly used and misunderstood — tools at your disposal: the humble press release.</p>
<p>I've been working with media and pitching startup stories since last century. I can — and do — write press releases in my sleep, at this point. In this free session, I'll share my tips and tricks to help you craft compelling press releases, whether it's the first time you've written one or the hundredth time you've tried.</p>
<p>So if you've had questions about press releases, can't understand why your press releases never work, or are scared of even beginning to compose a press release, trust that I've created this session especially for you.</p>
<p>Please join me! It's free.</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>Just because we're still socially distanced doesn't mean we can't connect.</p>
<p>As the weather starts to change, vaccines continue to roll out, and the glimmer of recovery grows ever brighter, there's no better time to reconnect with folks in the community with whom you've lost touch. And there's no better way to gather with a random smattering of your startup community peers than Portland Lunch 2.0.</p>
<p>No agenda. No talks. Just lunch with your 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. Or not.</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>Looking to meet new professional contacts but want to skip the small talk? Interested in getting help in facing work challenges head on? Ready to learn the best way to have positive and supportive professional relationships to become a better leader?</p>
<p>Welcome to the power of peer coaching.</p>
<p>Peer coaching is awesome! It's a mutually supportive, powerful form of learning and development where peers work together to reflect, share ideas, teach one another, or solve problems in the workplace through deep inquiry, accountability, direct feedback, and encouragement.</p>
<p>Peer coaching also helps build emotional intelligence, which is indispensable when stepping into leadership positions. The best leaders take the time to learn and practice skills like active listening, empathy, open communication and effective feedback, which can all be learned through practicing successful peer coaching relationships.</p>
<p>Join StartOut for a 1-hour peer coaching event where attendees will:</p>
<p>Learn basic peer coaching strategies like active listening, asking open questions and giving/getting effective feedback
Get matched with 3 new people and meet 1:1 together for 15 minute breakout sessions
Get to know each other by sharing your story with conversation prompts, practice your new peer coaching strategies, and create meaningful connections
Have the opportunity to stay in touch and continue supporting your new contacts throughout the year</p>
<p>About the host:</p>
<p>Hi! I'm Tracy (they/she), a StartOut programming board member. I design strategic programs for client companies who focus on community. In the past I've built experiences for Airbnb, Girl Scouts, Ketel One, the Alliance for Downtown New York, the Brooklyn Museum and more.</p>
<p>I'm also an independent creator, building events and programs like Lady Boss (curated talks and speed mentoring for womxn and non-binary people), Radical Sabbatical (a creative retreat to take a break and make some progress) and Queer Future (a community for LGBTQIA+ folx to talk about work).</p>
<p>I've also participated in many group coaching, peer-led or cohort-based learning experiences over the years, so I know a lot about collaboration, active listening, asking honest questions, and giving/receiving feedback.</p>
<p>StartOut, a national 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, is the largest national organization to support LGBTQ entrepreneurs with 17,000 members nationwide. Its mission is to increase the number, diversity, and impact of LGBTQ entrepreneurs and amplify their stories to drive the economic empowerment of the community. StartOut helps aspiring LGBTQ entrepreneurs start new companies; supports current entrepreneurs as they grow and expand their existing businesses; and engages successful entrepreneurs as role models and mentors, on its online portal and through targeted events nationwide.</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>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>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>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>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 join us as we welcome Tobias Read, Candidate for Oregon Governor.</p>
<p>Tobias Read has always made investing in our future his priority. In the legislature, he was a leader in passing full-day kindergarten and establishing Oregon’s rainy day fund. As Treasurer, he made it possible for tens of thousands of Oregonians to save for retirement and college. And he helped grow our economy and cut Wall Street fees, saving Oregonians more than a half a billion dollars.</p>
<p>As Governor, Tobias will bring people together to build a better future.
Oregon cannot continue to lurch from one crisis to the next. We need leaders who are focused on the next generation, not the next election.</p>
<p>Rethink Education by expanding the school year and creating universal pre-K.
Build Job Skills by expanding apprenticeships and vocational training programs
Protect Oregon’s Natural Resources by tackling climate change and creating clean energy jobs
Grow the Economy by supporting small businesses and creating opportunity in rural Oregon</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>
<p>PLEASE RSVP:

<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>

Join us and nerd out about electronics!</p>

<p>Join Madrona Venture Group and Madrona Venture Labs for lunch during ETHPortland to talk with fellow founders and meet investors, including Maria Gilfoyle and Scott Jacobson. This lunch will be full of great conversation and learnings.</p>
<p>Last month MVL hosted an accelerator week called, Launchable, which brought together 20 Web3 early-stage companies. Companies heard from leaders in the field and got hands-on help building — with one company being awarded $100,000 in funding.</p>
<p>Join us for lunch on Friday between 12:00 and 1:30 p.m. PT.</p>
<p>After RSVPing through Eventbrite, click on Fairshare to join our PNW Web3 Discord community and be airdropped a Launchable NFT. In the Discord you can connect with like-minded Web3 builders and entrepreneurs. Everyone at the lunch will also receive a POAP.</p>
<p>Madrona Venture Group is the largest and most active venture firm focused on early-stage companies in the Pacific Northwest. We invest in a range of different technology companies, including Web3 companies leveraging blockchain technology. Whatever the investment stage, we roll up our sleeves and work with founders to build their companies. We partner with founders from Day One for the Long Run.</p>
<p>Madrona Venture Labs is Madrona Venture Group's incubation program. The lab partners with founders as co-builders, advisers, and their first investors. Founders develop new ideas and start building them in partnership with Madrona from Day One.</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>
<p>Agenda:</p>
<p>6:00 PM: Sharing and Networking
7:00 PM: Welcome, News, Recap on Makerforce by Shashi
~7:30 PM: Community Time
7:45 PM: Networking
8:30 PM: Clean it up!</p>

<p>Julie Harrelson, Managing Director of the Cascade Seed Fund</p>
<p>Julie has over 30 years of experience as an investor, founder, sales executive and consultant. She launched Cascade Seed Fund with Robert Pease in 2019 after being founder of the five predecessor Cascade Angels Funds. Cascade is the first seed fund in Oregon founded outside the Portland metro area. She has been a seed stage investor since 2013 and founded her first enterprise at age 8.</p>
<p>(A child prodigy indeed!)</p>
<p>Julie was previously a tech executive in multiple companies variously acquired by Earthlink, Time Warner and others. Following an exit from a telecommunications startup, Harrelson worked as a trusted advisor with regional entrepreneurs, Fortune 500 companies, as well as leaders of massive change efforts in healthcare, education and energy before launching Cascade.</p>

<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>Business start-ups play an important role in driving economic growth, promoting innovation, creativity, and creating new opportunities for individuals and communities.</p>
<p>Over the past few decades, Portland was a hub for entrepreneurs and start-ups. The city’s deep talent pool, prime location, relative affordability, and access to natural resources made the Rose City an ideal location for launching and growing a business. As recently as 2020, Portland was ranked as one of the best places in the country to start a new business.</p>
<p>But that was then. Flash forward three tumultuous years and we have to ask ourselves: is Portland still a good market for start-ups?</p>
<p>Join the Portland Business Alliance for our final Forum Breakfast of the season, as we explore the state of start-ups in Portland. Our panel of experts will share perspectives on the current ecosystem, highlight emerging local businesses, and reflect on what it will take to better support all of Portland’s entrepreneurial start-ups.</p>
<p>Speakers:</p>
<ul>
<li>Kristy Edwards, Co-founder and CEO of Privacy Code</li>
<li>Steve Eichenlaub, Managing Director, Portland Seed Fund</li>
<li>Cara Turano, President and Executive Director, Oregon Entrepreneur Network</li>
<li>Ben Nahir, Venture Principal, Elevate Capital</li>

<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>Fact: Nearly half of entrepreneurs do their marketing all by themselves.</p>
<p>If you’re a biotech or life science startup founder out there bootstrapping your social media, you’re not alone — but the stakes can feel especially high when you’re also juggling fundraising, business development, team building, and more.</p>
<p>Whether you’re a CEO moonlighting as your company’s social media manager, work with a talented generalist who is juggling a lot, or contract with an agency to help you scale your content, it’s important to take stock of whether you’re making the most effective use of your resources to move the needle on social media.</p>
<p>s2s Public Relations’ content marketing lead, Caitlin Kryl, joins OBI to share tried and true strategies and tactics startup leaders can apply to ensure they’re producing effective and efficient social media content that supports business goals — even on the tightest of budgets.</p>
<p>Learning objectives:</p>
<p>Define the value of social media to drive awareness and engagement among investors, potential partners, and customers
Identify which social media platforms are right for your company and current bandwidth
Explore untapped opportunities to scale your social media visibility and impact through executive social media and employee advocacy
Learn about the benefit of content pillars and receive a template worksheet to help you brainstorm and establish your company’s own themes

<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>

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?
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?
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>

<p>Why Attend?
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?
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?
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>Why Participate?
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?
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>
