We seek intros to VCs\, backchannels to clients\, ad vice from our peers and mentors. In normal times\, these bonds heavily r ely on in-person interactions — coffees\, lunches\, beers\, and 1:1's. & #13\;\n \;\nReading body language is a critical component to reinforc ement of those bonds. In our most vulnerable moments\, we want to ensure that the other party is present\, listening\, and empathizing. And beyo nd the 1:1 interactions\, in social places like our coffee shops and cow orking spaces\, we create room for serendipity — that chance encounter t hat 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 communi ty. \;\n \;\nDuring this pandemic\, we've been stripped of the abi lity 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 digita l proxy. And while those proxies may suffice for our 1:1 meetings\, they certainly aren't helping with serendipity. \;\n \;\nSo how do we form community in a time of crisis? How do we create space for chance? A nd 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? \;\n \;\nJoin us for a mentor Q&\;A with Marcelino Alvarez\, Chief Product Officer at Fresh Consulting.

He's looking forward to answering your questions about startups\, startup accelerators\, and Portland\, in general. \;\n \;\nA litt le background on our guest… \;\n \;\nRick 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 conne ct dots within and outside the community. \;\n \;\nMore than a do zen years ago\, he started Silicon Florist\, a blog designed to capture what he saw happening in the Portland startup community. That work led t o the opportunity to start PIE\, the Portland Incubator Experiment\, an organization he continues to manage. \;\n \;\nAt its very most ba sic\, PIE is an ongoing experiment designed to explore ways that establi shed organizations — like corporations\, governments\, and educational i nstitutions — can effectively collaborate with startup communities in mu tually beneficial ways\, thereby strengthening the entire ecosystem.  3\;\n \;\nPIE currently exists as an early stage startup accelerator with three separate areas of focus: Software as a Service (in partnershi p with Puppet)\, manufactured products (in partnership with Autodesk)\, and traditional consumer products like food\, beverage\, and apparel (in partnership with Built Oregon). \;\n \;\nRSVP: https://www.crowdc ast.io/e/portland-startup-community-ama-rick-turoczy-20200505\n\nTags: f ree\, startup\, startups\, entrepreneur\, entrepreneurs\, founder\, foun ders\, cofounder\, cofounders\, portland\, pdx\, community\, online\, cr owdcast\, accelerator\, mentor\, Mentors\, rick turoczy\, pie\, piepdx\, ama\, ask me anything\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/125 0477000 URL:https://www.crowdcast.io/e/portland-startup-community-ama-rick-turocz y-20200505 SUMMARY:Portland startup community Q&A with Rick Turoczy of PIE\, Silicon Florist LOCATION:Online: placeholder for on-line events\, SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200502T051905Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200506T170000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200506T160000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200502T051905Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20200502T051905Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250477004 DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation with Mitch Daugherty\, cofounder a nd director of Built Oregon\, an organization focused on championing the consumer product industry in Oregon. \;\n \;\nThe greatest joy Mi tch has found is meeting with everyone in the statewide ecosystem.

The national average for how far food travels t o get from the farm to your house is 1\,500 miles. That’s wild!

More acce ss to food = fresher\, healthier foods! \;\n \;\nIt’s not just abo ut ditching the grocery store lines\, it’s about keeping money in the co mmunity and supporting local producers. For farmers\, we’re able to prov ide 6-7x what they’d make from a normal grocery store. It should be as e asy (if not easier) to buy from local farmers as it is to order a cab or book a stay in someone’s house\, right? \;\n \;\n90% of the small farms in America right now are at risk of extinction. If mega-industria lized farming becomes our only option for food\, we’ll have no more farm er’s markets\, no more CSAs\, no more farmers who are stewards to the la nd.
