Northwest
Entrepreneur Network's mission is to help entrepreneurs
succeed. Here are programs designed to help you make the
right connections and access to the resources vital to
the growth of your business.
Events
Venture
Breakfast Meetings: Held monthly on the second
Friday of the month, Venture Breakfasts feature guest
speakers and unique networking opportunities.
Seminars: Free
educational seminars are held regularly to provide meaty
information about specific business challenges.
Entrepreneur
University: Bill Bain is a serial entrepreneur
who recently founded his fourth company, ScaleOut Software.
He's also attended three of the last four Entrepreneur
Universities. "EU has been a tremendous value
for me, providing the key information and valuable
networking opportunities that I needed to develop my
new software start-up," he says. "The speakers
have been excellent, and the program has provided fresh
insights and great new contacts. You never graduate
from EU!" more.
Early-Stage
Investment Forum: An annual forum for the region's
most promising high-growth ventures to present their
business concepts to accredited investors.
Pub
Nights: Where do entrepreneurs go to meet other smart,
energetic, and entrepreneurial people? Pub Nights begin with
an opportunity of five NWEN entrepreneur members to have three
minutes of fame in front of the microphone. These pitches
get the meeting/mixing/mingling rolling.
Essentials

practical, interactive workshops that provide in-depth instruction
for early-stage and rapid-growth entrepreneurs.

Minute Forum: A high-visibility opportunity
