Mark Colgan and James Bogue will tell us about their web startup The Smile Exchange, a network of "Smile Traders" who want to live with purpose and make the world better than they found it — one good deed at a time. Based on the concept of "pay it forward," traders post nice things they or someone they know has done simply to inspire others to do the same.
They will also share their lessons learned so far including how they connected with Winn Claybaugh, the co-founder of Paul-Mitchell and author of Be Nice or Else. Come get inspired and give feedback while we all learn about pitching new concepts first hand.
I was amazed at how many of the folks there were new faces. It's great to see the Rochester startup scene growing!
