founder.coffee in Salem @ IKE Box Café

Well, the first founder.coffee event in Salem went so darn well the attending founders and entrepreneurs wanted to do another, so ask and ye shall receive.

The second founder/coffee event in Salem will be at IKE Box Café. The IKE Box coffee shop, has been furthering our mission since 2004. The IKE Box creates opportunities to train, mentor, and employ divested youth in an apprenticeship program that restores dignity and builds self-sufficiency through belonging to a team, gaining skills, and working hard.

Their mission is for young people, but our vision is restored community. Everybody knows that we can’t have truly healthy young people without an engaged, caring community, but IKE Box also assert that we can’t have a truly healthy community without engaged, caring young people

The overall concept founder.coffee events are super simple. No real complex structure, simply show up, buy a coffee and meet other founders and entrepreneurs to commiserate with.

We do kindly request the understanding this event is for founders, entrepreneurs and business owners to meet and connect with one another. This is not designed for vendors or sales reps, but if your company wants to sponsor a coffee event, we will give you a shoutout.

See you soon Salem.
