Community-powered Approach Helps to Fund Re-launch

Filed under: Planning, Sponsors — Steve Gehlen @ 8:50 AM

One of the things that I enjoyed most about the first iteration of the Portland Creative Conference in the 90’s was how the creative community came together to make it happen.  The collaborative work of the event’s Board, production crew, volunteers, in-kind service providers and sponsors was something like magic.

I’m happy to report that as we work on a re-launch of a similar event that spirit is being rekindled!  The most obvious early example is that many people in the new planning group (several Board alumni from the original event plus several new faces) have personally pledged $100 toward the deposit required to hold the venue for the proposed Sept. 6th date.

If you are interested in helping out in any way (personal contribution, company sponsorship, in-kind service, etc.), please contact us.
