So bring your laptops and your work ethic to the inaugural PDX TechCoffee. One commit a week is all we ask.

A few of us are getting together to do work sprinting for Open Source Bridge. It's a beautiful day, so our plan is to occupy the patio at http://ristrettoroasters.com - Ristretto (3808 N Williams Ave) until my battery runs out, and then enjoy a pint at the http://www.newoldlompoc.com/5thquadrant_home.html - Fifth Quadrant in the early afternoon.

I'll head over to Ristretto at 11am. Come join us if you'd like to work on a few things for the conference, or if you'd just like to hang out on this fine day. We'll be working on sponsorship-related things, checking over the schedule, writing blog posts about talks we're really looking forward to seeing, and shoring up details for the Hacker Lounge, parties, and generally fun stuff around the conference.

Leslie Hawthorn (formerly program manager for Google Summer of Code), and a few people from the OSU Open Source Lab are also coming out today.

We hope you're having a lovely day and hope to see you!

NB: We're at a new location for Season 2.

Brave coders can spend some time working on the compiler (written in C++), while eager ones can try writing things in Wake to provide valuable feedback. Either way, work directly with Mike as questions come up to ensure its smooth sailing!

The format is pretty laid back. Come by, grab a cup of coffee, and network with other business owners who are working on incredible projects. We can't wait to hear what you're working on!

About Coffee w/ Co-Founders: As a business owner you are faced with many challenges. You're forced to make decisions every day that could make or break your business. Coffee w/ Co-Founders is a way to network with other Entrepreneurs to allow free flowing information with the intent to collaborate and help each other. So often we're challenged and there's very little we can do to express our challenges with the people we work with or the people we care about. Think of Coffee w/ Co-Founders as your own personal support group for business owners. We're all here to help!

It's happening again. Portland Startup Week! We're excited to be teaming up with WeWork at the Custom House for this year's event.

Remember last year? Over 85 over you showed up and we nearly shut down Glyph. This year we're taking this to WeWork's event space, but we still have some limitations on space. That being said, we'll have a capacity of 75 people.

If you plan on coming to this event please RSVP as this event will fill up quick!

PLEASE NO SERVICE PROVIDERS! With the limited space we'd like to keep this event to Business Owners/Founders.

WeWork will be providing coffee and goodies!

About Coffee w/ Co-Founders: This event is meant to be a very informal gathering of entrepreneurs to talk about their projects, challenges, and successes. This event is not just for tech founders. We usually see all types of business owners from a variety of industries.

Come join us for coffee and "tech-talk" at Cafe Delirium! If you are not yet familiar with our group, the coffee break is a nice opportunity to drop by and introduce yourself. We have the room in the back reserved. We're going to hang out for a couple of hours, so feel free to come by, talk shop, show off what you're working on, ask questions and pick each other's brains. We look forward to seeing you there! All are welcome!

• What: Coffee Break
• Where: Cafe Delirium
• When: 10:00am - Noon, Saturday, February 20th, 2016
• Why: Sharing what we know over good coffee

Join us for our Thought Leader Coffee event at NedSpace: Mayoral Candidate Ted Wheeler will be sharing his insights for taking Portland forward into a bigger and better entrepreneurial future.

First I'd like to apologize to all of you for not being more active. I've been a bit overwhelmed lately so I've not been able to arrange a meetup. However, it's been February since our last get together so this is long overdue!

We're hitting Breken Kitchen on the NW side of town. The space is not very large so we'll do what we can to find a place that doesn't impact the other patrons. Perhaps we can gather on their back deck. Either way, we'll have placards in the area so it's easily identifiable.

Please be sure to patronize this establishment. The worse thing we can do is show up as a big group and not at least buy a cup of coffee (thus the name).

Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Portland Startup Week is happening again Feb. 6-10th and, as we did last year, Coffee w/ Co-Founders will meet during this incredible event.

The format is pretty laid back. Come by, grab a cup of coffee, and network with other business owners who are working on incredible projects. We can't wait to hear what you're working on!

Please be aware that we will need to be sensitive to Coava's normal customer traffic. As such, we'll do our best to confine ourselves to the wall in the back side of the shop.

About Coffee w/ Co-Founders: As a business owner you are faced with many challenges. You're forced to make decisions every day that could make or break your business. Coffee w/ Co-Founders is a way to network with other Entrepreneurs to allow free flowing information with the intent to collaborate and help each other. So often we're challenged and there's very little we can do to express our challenges with the people we work with or the people we care about. Think of Coffee w/ Co-Founders as your own personal support group for business owners. We're all here to help!

We're in the NW side of town this month. Breken is a great place to relax, grab a cup of coffee, or get some of their yummy food.

Come join us for some “tech-talk” at the Gresham Library! It's been a little while since we last met, and EAST Knowledge is changing our overall format up a bit. We'd like to do more regular, informal gatherings and have talks when the opportunities present themselves.

So with that in mind, we hope you join us in this informal gathering to talk shop, show what we're working on, help each other, and hear from others interested in technology. If you are not yet familiar with our group, this is a nice opportunity to drop by and introduce yourself. We’ll have light refreshments, and some of us may get together for lunch afterwards. We look forward to seeing you there! All are welcome!

• What: Coffee Break
• Where: Large meeting room at the Gresham Library
• When: 10:00am - Noon, Saturday, April 29th, 2017

This month we will be sitting down with Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler. A third generation Oregonian, he has been working hard to ensure the Portland ecosystem is robust, inclusive, and thoughtful.

Fundraising for your early stage startup is difficult. It's made even more difficult with the recent trend of smaller pre-revenue funding in the region. This month we will sit down with some area panelist to discuss funding trends, funding alternatives, and what can be done to get early stage companies better access to capital that can help take their companies to the next level.

This will be a "leave your feelings at the door" conversation. We will touch on what is really to blame for the lack of early stage funding access. Whether that means looking at local and regional funding resources that seemed to have dried up, to whether founders have companies that are investible.

Panelists: Josh Carter - Manager, WeWork Labs (Moderator) Nicole Schmidt - CEO/Co-Founder @ krowdsourced Geoff Harris - Partner @ Flying Fish VC Ross Barbieri - Angel Investor/EiR @ Portland State's Business Accelerator

Failure is a part of the founder journey. It could be something as small as missing a sales number or as big as a massive business breakup. However you fail it ends up taking a toll on you as a human.

Join us this month as we lead an open discussion and share our stories of failure.

Jaime Schmidt started her body care product business in 2010 primarily as a hobby. But it didn’t take long for this ‘maker’ to grow her business from hobby to enterprise. After catching on at local farmers’ markets and co-ops, her natural deodorants earned coveted shelf space at national retailers, and before long, Schmidt was being courted by global companies looking to capitalize on the trends in natural body care that she helped define. Today, Schmidt’s Naturals is a subsidiary of Unilever.

After several years on the shelf, we've dusted off this meetup and hope you can all make it! For the first meetup back, we're going to take over one of our favorite coffee shops in all of Portland, Deadstock.

With the weather improving we should be able to hang out outside and allow for safe social distancing (for those still apprehensive about getting back together).

After a successful re-launch at Deadstock, we're headed over to Slabtown to check out Good Coffee (thanks to Corey for the recommendation). This location has a nice little outside area for those that are still not eager to get together indoors. Hope to see you all there!

Review from four weeks ago: I want you to imagine the Hamptons with a bit of european posh and the Irish green thumb with a PNW style that is one of a kind. That's what Kiss Coffee is.

They have covered outdoor seating & indoor vaccinated seating! Please visit the cart to place your order. To sit inside, please show your vax card-or a photo of your vax card-when ordering.

Weather permitting, we'll be hanging out outside.

Hope to see you all there! Josh & Mark

Matt Milletto, co-founder of Water Ave Coffee, will be not only providing coffee for this morning's event, he was also be sharing a couple stories of his entrepreneurial journey...so far.

This event will be at the brand spanking new Upstart Collective.

UpStart Collective is roughly 4,000 feet of contemporary office space nestled at the top of a retrofitted industrial tower in inner SE Portland – complete with multiple rooftop patios, colorful conference rooms, a ping pong table, and the occasional visiting office pup.

Much more than a space, it is also both a new experiment and collaboration years in the making. Through the continued efforts of startup leaders in our city (and a generous contribution from our partner, GRAYBOX), UpStart Collective is now a highly subsidized creative space open to founders, funders, tinkerers, creators, doers, and idealists.

Come meet other great founders Learn some stuff Hear some great stories Drink some kick-ass coffee

About Coffee w/ Co-Founders: As a business owner you are faced with many challenges. You're forced to make decisions every day that could make or break your business. Coffee w/ Co-Founders is a way to network with other Entrepreneurs to allow free-flowing information with the intent to collaborate and help each other. So often we're challenged and there's very little we can do to express our challenges with the people we work with or the people we care about. Think of Coffee w/ Co-Founders as your own personal support group for business owners. We're all here to help!

Housed in the famous 100+ year-old Schoolhouse building, Electrica Coffee brings together Mexican coffee and Japanese teas for an eclectic cafe experience. Owned by local renowned multi-restaurant owner Angel Medina, Electrica Coffee will serve as the backdrop for our next meetup.

We're headed to the suburbs for this month's Coffee w/ Co-Founders. We've heard from a number of people who would like us to move this event to other places outside of Portland. So we'll give this a try and see how it works out.

Oregon is a place that welcomes the weird and is home to some truly unique attractions. So a sneaker-themed coffee shop in Portland doesn’t seem at all out of place. Deadstock Coffee prides itself on its ‘snob-free’ coffee, and it really is an accessible, neighborhood coffee shop… with a bit of a PDX edge. Owned and operated by Ian Williams, Deadstock Coffee is a true Portland iconoclast; a place where sneaker culture and coffee culture are brewed into one unique cup.

In the heart of Slabtown, Snow Bunny Coffee offers awesome drinks and bites in an open-air cafe with plenty of parking.

We will do our best to provide some signage so people can identify the group more easily. We've heard you and know that it's a bit awkward to ask, "Are you here for the meetup!" when there's nothing to identify the group.

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

North Bank Innovations is a local non-profit based in Southwest Washington, committed to building a local ecosystem that helps early-stage startups.

This month Nathan Stahlman will present about his game studio, Noctua Interactive, using Generative AI to create groundbreaking games! He will focus on how it all started, where they are today, and their plans for the future including the challenges they face to make their goals happen.

Following the presentation we will invite key founders, investors, and startup junkies familiar with some of the most successful startups in our region.

Events like this in other regions have been significant catalysts for startup growth and success.

After the presentation, we'll leave plenty of time for audience Q&A and Networking.

If you are interested in presenting please direct message me here on meetup or fill out the short form at https://www.northbankinnovations.org/startup-conversations.

Please note, that we encourage genuine networking, not hunting for sales or leads. If you are genuinely starting or working with a startup, this is the right crowd for you. Thanks for helping us keep it real.

For the next founder.coffee we're on the north side of town! This cool spot features an incredible library of books for you to read while you are sipping on your favorite caffeinated drink. Owners Nathan and Mary have lived in the neighborhood since 2003, and wanted to create a space where their neighbors could gather together over cups of delicious coffee, great snacks, and beautiful books. Mary was inspired by the library stacks at The University of Texas, where her mother worked, and by the breakfast tacos of her hometown of Austin. Most of the books in The Stacks Community Library were donated by friends and neighbors, and book donations are always accepted!

They also have a wonderful outside area and if the weather is nice, that's where we'll meet!

Each month we host a local founder who will give a short presentation about their company. They will focus on how it all got started, where they are today, and their plans for the future including the challenges they face to make their goals happen.

Following the presentation our host, Dave Barcos will dig into the founder's background, the company's story, and other observations. After the interview, we will have an audience Q&A session to help attendees ask direct questions of the presenter. It has proven to be a great format to catalyze the local founders and the startups in the region. You won't want to miss it.
