Since 1994, we help people turn their inspiration into effective action.

Sharing their startup experience and brainstorming with us this week will be: Kite and event entrepreneurs Jane and Larry Ambrose http://www.oneskyoneworld.org; and entrepreneur and independent market forecaster Eric Gemelli, http://www.linkedin.com/pub/eric-gemelli/1/681/532

Anyone who is starting a new project or campaign, a new business, or a new career is invited to join us.

How do we help? We share startup experience and we brainstorm.

If we are successful at the meeting, you will be too busy to come back next week!

An RSVP is NOT required, but it's helpful if you do RSVP for a couple of reasons: 1) It reserves your seat; and 2) You'll get a reminder each week you can forward to friends, family, and business associates who you think might find the meeting helpful.

Special speakers are announced each Wednesday, the first 14 to RSVP each week are guaranteed a seat until the start of the meeting at 2 p.m., others are welcome to attend and either take the seat of a no-show or to sit in the "peanut gallery" no-RSVP observation only seats. (So if you RSVP come a few minutes early to make sure you have your seat!)

You can just listen, but you'll get the most out of our time together if you share something about yourself, what you want to learn from our time together, and if you join in the brainstorming.

We are in the community room
