You have a big idea, maybe even a co-founder. But you'd like a second opinion before you sever all ties to paid employment, loved ones and regular meals. Time to Pitch for a Beer and get frank and fast feedback from Portland Seed Fund managers!

How it works: First 50 to arrive get in free with an elevator pitch to the bouncer. Those who want to pitch PSF simply drop their names in a hat. 12 names will be drawn for 5-min power sessions with PSF managers Jim Huston, Angela Jackson and Jenn Lynch. Ringler booths will be filled with other PSF alumni and mentors, so you will garner additional feedback from great sources even if your name didn't get drawn. Everyone gets a beer ticket (and pizza).

No RSVP required. Doors will be closed after first 50 in.

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 hang out with:

• Audrey Eschright, the publisher of The Recompiler, the Portland-based hacker magazine
• Thursday Bram, the editor of The Responsible Communication Style Guide, the forthcoming style guide on identity and technology
• And more Portland creators!

Come prepared to see some amazing comics and other work. You’re probably going to find your new favorite reading material while you’re at it!

Let's kick off the week with a beer, good conversations, and networking. Portland Startup Week attendees are welcome to a chill and relaxing meetup to interact with local ecosystem leaders and advocates.
