We are headed BACK to Deadstock coffee as part of Portland Startup Week 2025! If you are unfamiliar, this legendary coffeeshop in Portland is founded by Ian Williams, a 2023 James Beard Media Award winner. Ian is a former Nike shoe designer turned coffee roaster and has won a ton of awards and accolades for his work in the community. He is the unofficial mayor of Old Town and works tirelessly to give back to the community.

This event is open to all area founders. We can't wait to learn more about what you are working on and how we can be helpful.

As always, be there thinking about ways you can help your fellow founders. No selling, no solicitations, just good conversations!
