"They have been a fantastic compliment to the George Fox MBA program that I’m currently enrolled in. The combination of the foundational information provided by this traditional institution and the entrepreneurial education I have received by taking part in these workouts has been a great pair in preparing me to succeed in business and in life." -Travis Spencer "I have found the PortlandTen workout sessions to be well worth the time and cost. Our company has benefitted directly from specific process models as well as input and idea exchange with other entrepreneurs" -John-Paull Davidson </code></pre> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4165781/">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
