MondayOct 26 2026Code & Coffee - Beaverton–
Fly ChaiWebsiteCode & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session: drink your beverage of choice, bring your laptop, and hang out with your peers! Have engaging conversations, or focus on work or projects. This is a great opportunity to learn from others, share your knowledge, and possibly collaborate on side projects, online courses, or even your day-to-day work.
---- Schedule ----
You're welcome to drop in anytime during the event. We understand that everyone may have external commitments and challenges - join us when you can!
We have informal unscheduled introductions - practice your personal elevator pitch, or take things slower to build your confidence.
---- Venue ----
Fly Chai allow us to informally and freely use their space. If within your budget, we'd appreciate your help to sustain our use of the venue, by purchasing something tasty, whether Chai or otherwise.
Find us at tables with a Code&Coffee sign - or a clump of laptop-users!
Wifi and power outlets are available. Our meeting area should be accessible - please let us know if not.
---- What to expect ----
Smaller events than you may be used to, with a mixed crowd week-to-week. We expect this is likely due to us meeting weekly, at a less central location.
These may result in what you're looking for:
A smaller, less intimidating, lower pressure, cozy atmosphere. A mix of regular and new faces. A simpler schedule - every week, same time, same place - that you can drop into when you like. Being closer to you than other events.Whether those are generally or partly to your liking, we hope you'll consider dropping by sometime!
---- Getting to the venue ----
Look for the venue on the meetup Google map, or alternatives like OpenStreetMap.
-- Driving --
There are limited parking spaces on a lot outside the venue (4+1 accessible), with more in the surrounding area.
-- Transit options --
Beaverton Central (Red/Blue MAX), then walk~ 8 minutes
Beaverton Transit Center (Red/Blue MAX, bus, WES) then walk ~11 minutes
For a shorter walk to the venue, take a bus from Beaverton Transit Center (52 to Farmington/Hall, 76 to Watson/Broadway, 57 to Canyon/Watson)

TuesdayOct 27 2026Virtual Lunch & Learn: Intentional Culture for the Bioscience Start-up–Website
Join us for a Virtual Lunch & Learn presented by Terry Smith as he explores the importance of intentional company culture and how it influences your success.
One of the most succinct definitions of company culture is, “how things get done around here.” It’s a deceptively simple statement, and captures a wide range of behaviors, practices, processes, and rituals. For the founder and entrepreneur, that culture starts with the way you work and get things done. Being intentional about your culture means understanding and memorializing how you work and is essential to how you grow your business. If you succeed as you hope to, you will need to think about hiring and developing your team to help you achieve your vision. Are you ready for that? And, are you prepared to put in the work today that will build that foundation for success?
In this webinar, we’ll discuss the importance of intentional culture and how it influences your success. We’ll look at some practical approaches to being intentional, and we’ll discuss the long-term value of intentionality for your company. We will also talk about what happens when you don’t address your culture, and you find out your culture is addressing you. We’ll also review real world examples of successful intentional cultures, and at the hard data around those cultures. This is not “fluffy” stuff that can “wait until we’re not so busy;” this is real strategic action that won’t wait for you to get around to it.
