Good managers and leaders agree - the most valuable asset in any company is its employees.

Is your hiring process set up to support your most valuable asset?

Startup Coffee Hour! The Pop-Up Startup Accelerator
Rocking Frog

Startup Coffee Hour! reinvents the Startup Accelerator as a two-hour flash mob at a coffee shop.

The accelerator is like a tavern in an RPG: you can wander around the room and explore freely; you can walk up to anyone and talk to them; you can reacquaint with past companions and team members; you can sit at a table and share a laugh with elders, artisans, and heroes; you can form adventuring parties that may last a lifetime — and that's just the first 15 minutes. Learn more.

Secret Knowledge Exchange
Taborspace

This is Secret Knowledge's Un-Workshop. There's no topic, just a mission.

It's about getting you the resources, skills, tips, creative advice, tech help, or buoying encouragement you need right now. Come, and get it.

Getting the most out of Secret Knowledge Exchange

It's an un-workshop. That means it doesn't have a topic. Participate by bringing requests or a topic suggestion for the group. Engage and help each other. If you have the answers someone needs, share.

We guarantee to make it worth your time, each and every time.

Some ideas

We hope this example list will help you as you consider what requests to bring to the workshop. We're including it to inspire you, not limit your options.

  • Bring that pesky technical device, computer program, or other doodad that you're having trouble figuring out. Ask for help. (bring the manual if you have it)

  • Talk about the state of your career, what your goals are, and ask for advice on how to break out of a rut.

  • Bring something you're working on, ask for some feedback.

Free / Suggested donation ($5 - $15)

Let us know you're planning to attend. Registration is free (and optional).
