Join Us. \;\n \;\ nWe are excited to present our first seminar of the year. Join us for a fun\, informative evening featuring talks from three industry pros. Thei r combined topic is from an Idea to a Product: How to Start and Grow You r Business. \;\nTake Your Business to the Next Level \;\n \;\nT his event is geared towards patent based businesses and start-ups\, inve ntors\, 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. \;\nMeet People &\; Grow Your Network \;\n \;\nWe e xpect lots of faces from the electronics manufacturing industry\, so be sure to bring your business cards. This is an excellent opportunity to m eet new faces and reconnect with colleagues. \;\n \;\n \;\nThre e Expert Speakers \;\n \;\nAn Introduction to Intellectual Propert y \;\nDr. Laura Zager\, patent attorney (more info) \;\n \;\n&q uot\;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 statem ents represent misunderstandings of intellectual property law\, which ca n 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. \;\n \;\nFinancial\, Business and Estate Plannin g Strategies for Business Owners \;\nDiana Wojcik\, patent valuation analyst (more info) \;\n \;\nCovering incorporation choices\, valu ations\, tax strategy\, and continuity/succession plans\, Diana will ill ustrate different options available to business owners and explain the c osts\, risks\, and benefits of each\, to help business owners plan ahead to maximize their gains and minimize their risks.

In theory this approach makes a lot of s ense\, but in practice it is fraught with challenges. In his talk\, Fris hberg leads the group through a couple of case studies in which the busi ness got almost everything wrong\, and was all the better because of it. \;\n \;\n\n\nTags: electronics\, manufacturing\, startup\, start- up\, tech\, seminar\, brewery\, patents\, financial\, lean manufacturing \n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250470278 URL:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ema-era-talk-trade-how-to-start-and-grow -your-business-tickets-25415492422 SUMMARY:EMA Trade Talk LOCATION:Golden Valley Brewing: 1520 NW Bethany Blvd\, Beaverton OR 97006 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20160926T172830Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20161013T140000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20161013T083000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20160926T172830Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20160926T172830Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250470865 DESCRIPTION:Join startup and seasoned manufacturers for networking\, skil l development\, and learning at the Hillsboro Chamber's 3rd Annual Manuf acturers Summit.

C reated by author\, filmmaker\, and professor\, Dr. Wayne Visser\, this f ilm takes an optimistic viewpoint to climate change and innovative solut ions. \;\nDate and Time: June 28\, 2018 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm \; \n \;\nLocation: PSU: Smith Memorial Student Union: Parkway North 182 5 SW Broadway\, Portland\, OR 97201 \;\n \;\nCost: $5 \;\n \ ;\nGoing “circular” refers to the necessary change from our current take -make-waste linear economy to a borrow-use-return circular economy (some times also referred to as the zero-waste or cradle-to-cradle economy).&# 13\;\n \;\nThe key takeaway message from Closing the Loop is that mov ing to a circular economy is not only essential and urgent\, but also en tirely possible\, if we take inspiration from the pioneers\, such as tho se featured in the film\, and scale up similar business models\, product innovations and customer solutions around the world. \;\n \;\nIt will not be easy – and there is no “one size fits all” approach\, as the varied experiences across three continents show – but the circular econ omy revolution is imperative. As presenter Dr Visser puts it: \;\n 3\;\n“If we don’t solve this one problem [i.e. moving from a linear to a circular economy]\, everything else we do\, no matter how well-intentio ned it is\, will be like shifting deck chairs on the Titanic.” \;\n&# 13\;\n“After years spent working on sustainability\, I am convinced that we are on the cusp of a major revolution – nothing short of the next in dustrial revolution. The time for fear-mongering and demonising companie s has past. Now is the time for innovative solutions and positive action . This is nowhere more true than in the do-or-die challenge of creating a circular economy.” \;\n \;\n“We still have much work to do\, but our task could not be more clear. So get inspired and\, to quote Gandhi – a sustainability luminary before his time – be the change you want to see in the world.” \;\n \;\nStay afterward for a brief discussion about the circular economy and how you can apply these powerful princip les to your life and business. \;\n \;\nFor more information about the film\, you can visit www.ClosingtheLoopFilm.com. \;\n \;\nEve nt is co-sponsored by Consious Capitalism Portland and MonicaBourgeau.co m.\n\nTags: innovation\, economy\, manufacturing\, technology\, circular economy\, business\, sustainable\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org /events/1250473864 URL:https://www.eventbrite.com/e/documentary-screening-closing-the-loop-a -film-about-the-circular-economy-revolution-tickets-46239631984 SUMMARY:Documentary Screening: Closing the Loop - A Film About the Circul ar Economy Revolution LOCATION:PSU Smith Memorial Student Union: 1825 Southwest Broadway\, Port land OR 97201 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20180914T230453Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181003T160000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181003T070000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20180914T230453Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20180914T230453Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250474238 DESCRIPTION:Startup &\; seasoned manufacturers are invited to attend t he 18th annual Northwest Electronics Design &\; Manufacturing Expo\, which celebrates and promotes local electronics and manufacturing indust ries.
