Greg BerryEvent HostOrganizerGreenSpaces is a great new venue that really provided us with the perfect space for this meetup. Ryan Martens told an inspiring story. And the entrepreneurs who presented their businesses really got great discussions going. Overall, this is becoming a really great and strong community of smart, influential thinkers and leaders. Thanks, everyone, for committing your time and collective intelligence to our community. -

Noah BlesseyI really enjoyed my first Sustainable Ventures Meetup. This is a whole new world to me. I'm looking to transition into a creative, dynamic, innovative and socially minded career so it was great to A. get me thinking in these terms B. listen to what other members of the Denver Metro community are doing along these lines and C. collaborate through our smaller group discussion. I found I had some resources to offer others in the group and more in common with other members than I thought when I first got there.

Kathryn WardellThis was a very inspirational meeting. The discussion groups were insightful and good "wisdom" shared. The discussion from Ray at Rally Software was also good as it indicates a SBL company creating a consciousness and putting practices in place toward building a sustainable corporation which more and more corporations will find themselves moving toward. Good people, ideas and inspiration.

Karl DakinThis is a diverse group of people with great talent working toward defining, refining and advocating for social enterprises.
