Environmental entrepreneur? Savvy about sustainability? Net-zero newbie?

Climate Curious is a monthly event for Portland people interested in climate to clink glasses and talk shop at different venues around the city. Come meet new people, ask questions, and share your skills.

This Month's Activity We are so excited about this one! We're teaming up with the PSU Center for Entrepreneurship to help judge their Cleantech Challenge pitch competition.

This is a chance for us all to share a bit of our experience and perspective to help give the future of climate tech in Portland a jump start on innovative careers that will improve our city and our planet.

Since this is a seated series of presentations, let's be respectful of the hard work these students have put in and plan to arrive with enough time to get seated before they begin at 5:30pm.

The Afterparty Nothing wrong with celebrating a job well done!

After the pitch competition wraps and we've given feedback on all the competitors, we'll decamp to a nearby watering hole to unpack and hang out for a few rounds.

Location tbd but will be updated here and announced after the presentations (holler if you know of any good spots in walking distance).
