Substance World Headquarters

What are you doing to change the world?

If you're doing something to change the world (for the better, hopefully), we want to hear from you.

We're currently planning our third Show & Tell event; this time we couldn't be happier that it'll be part of the larger New Communications series of events. And in the spirit of the New Communicators, this go-round we want to give the floor over to the people and companies who are changing the world, not simply through their words, but through their actions.

We'll be hosting it with our friends from Pinch at Substance World Headquarters, 1551 SE Poplar Ave, Portland, and we plan on opening our doors at 6:30pm with drinks and music, then begin the program at 7pm. Note that we have a very limited number of chairs, so if you like sitting down you might want to either show up on the earlier side or bring your own chair.

We're also changing up the format this time. You have a choice between a 10 minute or a 5 minute time slot (and yes, we're going to have a stopwatch and a large hook to pull you offstage when your time is up). During your slot, tell us why you're going to change the world and how you are doing it.

If you’re interested in sharing your story, send us your idea and if you want 5 or 10 minutes by Monday, October 19th at 9am. We'll then sort through the ideas to curate an interesting evening. Send your ideas to: showandtell findsubstance com and we'll start the conversation.

Substance and Pinch, along with the Flash PDX User Group, invite you to an evening of show and tell. We know that you have been working diligently on the next big thing, so we want to give you the opportunity to brag about it a bit. So on Tuesday, March 3rd at 6:30 pm, at Substance, we will be hosting an event where you can come and share what you’ve been working on.

We’re looking for people to share a short presentation on something they have been working on and tell us about it. Plan for about 10 minutes on stage, and tell us what’s new. We hope to share ideas, designs, code, art, film, whatever you might be interested in sharing. We’d love to see new speakers, as well as the usual suspects sharing their work.

We plan on getting started around 6:00, with drinks and music, then begin the program at 7:00. The event will be held at Substance World Headquarters, 1551 SE Poplar Ave, Portland.

If you’re interested, send us your idea on what you’d like to present by Thursday February 26th and we will sort through the ideas to curate an interesting evening. Send your ideas to: "showandtell findsubstance.com" and we will start the conversation.
