This month's host and sponsor is CENTRL! This month we'll be at the new Centrl location on the east side of Portland. This incredible space has already been host to a number of great community events. So it makes sense that our community make this one of our stops.

Dillin of Centrl will be speaking to you all about the space and will be giving tours to anyone that would like one. Centrl will also be providing coffee for this month's event.

About Coffee w/ Co-Founders: As a business owner you are faced with many challenges. You're forced to make decisions every day that could make or break your business. Coffee w/ Co-Founders is a way to network with other Entrepreneurs to allow free flowing information with the intent to collaborate and help each other. So often we're challenged and there's very little we can do to express our challenges with the people we work with or the people we care about. Think of Coffee w/ Co-Founders as your own personal support group for business owners. We're all here to help!

Want to chat with an OEN staff member about how to get started leveraging our network? How to leverage other entrepreneurial resources in Portland and beyond? How to best take advantage of your membership? How to get more involved in OEN?

Make an appointment during our June 21 office hours so you can introduce yourself and chat with us. When you arrive, check in at the front desk and the receptionist will tell you where to go.
