If you live in Oregon and you are an entrepreneur, chances are good that you know about the Oregon Entrepreneurs Network. OEN is an amazing agency that helps entrepreneurs access the resources they need to build their businesses.
They have several ways to be involved...one of them is through their PubTalk series...Here's how OEN describes PubTalk,
"Imagine sitting down with a group of colleagues and friends and listening to one of you bounce business ideas off the others. That's PubTalk - a non-threatening yet sometimes brutally honest atmosphere where presenting entrepreneurs use their peers as a sounding board.
First, three young OEN member companies have five minutes each to present who they are and what they do to the assembled crowd - who are encouraged to ask questions. Later, a single featured company will present an expanded version of their pitch and take comments and questions from the audience. Think of it as trial by friendly fire."
This week we had a bit of an unusual PubTalk, in that it was focused on sustainability...Roll picture segment...
A great picture of Gillian Fenner (Volunteer) from Vencore Capital and Karin McKercher (Board Member) from AterWynne
Local Green Business Directory, the ReDirect Guide.
And organic food for kids from Organic Fresh Fingers.
All in all, it was a great time and I met awesome people! Give PubTalks a try...It's amazing...
