    Demolicious - October 2024
    free

    Details September Demolicious will be at the westside UpStart Collective location!

    ::::::: Please use the form below to apply to pitch for SEPTEMBER & OCTOBER :::::::::::

    Demolicious is back! This monthly pitch event brings together founders and the community to learn about what is being built here and around Portland.

    How this all works: If you are a founder, you will apply to pitch here. Don't worry. "Apply" simply means you want to pitch, but there's no real competitive process to be accepted. We just want to see what you're working on before we put you in front of a room full of people.

    You will be given 3 minutes to pitch at the event.

    The audience will be given a number to text and vote for their favorite one. The one with the most votes will go home with the Demolicious Championship belt.

    The belt is not for you to keep as you will have to come back and "defend" it. However, you will be allowed to put your startup sticker (if applicable) on the belt for all to see and to live on forever in infamy!

    We will post the projects/companies that will be pitching a week prior to the event. Which means you have until then to fill out the form.

    Teams Pitching: TBD

    Will you be the next founder to pitch!?!

    Pacific Northwest Aerospace Expo

    We are the Portland State Aerospace Society (PSAS), an interdisciplinary, student-led group at Portland State University, that built Oregon’s first and second satellite, both which are in orbit. PSAS works closely with students, non-profit organizations, companies, and schools both in and outside of Oregon to also promote STEAM education, one of which is our Pacific Northwest Aerospace Expo (PNWAE).

    The PNWAE is a yearly event held by PSAS at Portland State University since 2019. What was once a small, intimate gathering of local aerospace industry professionals and enthusiasts has become better than ever with remarks from Oregon Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley in previous years. We've also had esteemed guest speakers from NASA, John Hopkins APL and other instructions join us for remarkable talks.

    Although we are a hybrid event, this year we are having in-person booths, to which other universities, colleges, and science organizations such as Oregon State University, OES Aerospace, etc. are coming to table and participate.

    Monthly Happy Hour (PDX Web and Design)
    –
    Rontoms

    If you're like me, you spend WAYYYY too much time in front of a computer. I think it would be great to have a monthly get together at a bar or pub to just get to know each other, have a brew, and yes, talk about the business. Real human interaction, in other words. Repeats the last Tuesday of every month.

    Starting September 24th we will be changing venues to Romtoms, on the east side of the bridge at Burnside and 6th St. We hope there will be more room and it will be easier to find the rest of us. We look forward to seeing everyone.

    If you can't find us inside look for us out in the back we may be enjoying the sunshine and the beautiful open patio.
