Don't Put the Charrette Before the Horse...

Just confirmed that our first meeting around Portland Cup will be all business.

We'll be 'strategizing' on June 4th with local leaders in business and sustainability at Frank Creative in SE PDX. Turns out our hosts at Frank are also very interested in this issue and have graciously offered the use of their deluxe conference room for the gathering.

Our focus for this first meeting will be an overview of the pros and cons of the current single-use cup systems and the benefits of going with a reusable solution.

We'll also try to get a quick and dirty business plan together for how the Portland Cup would make dollars and good sense.

The space for this meeting is very limited, but if you or someone you know would be a perfect fit for this first business strategy meeting, feel free to contact me.

The findings of this meeting will feed subsequent meetings, presentations, and design sessions to follow.
