RE: U.S Senator and Congressman conduct ribbon cutting ceremony at Copa Di Vino

Erica — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 08:37:40 GMT

I am happy to hear the success of Copa Di Vino. It's great to know that the hard work and dedication of the owner had been finally paid off. I hope that the success story of Copa Di Vino will inspire some of the businesses that there is no impossible if you will just be determined and try to make things possible. Perseverance, commitment and strong passions are just some of the main ingredients of success. Long lived Copa Di Vino! Hope that it will just be the beginning, we could then expect for a progressive operation in the few years to come. Government should encourage and gave much support to private and small business, it's better if they could provide financial assistance because additional financial resources will stabilize every business operation.

RE: OEN Partners with souk, members to save

A quick fact check. Kevin Cavenaugh actually created the first shared workspace in Portland at TENpod NE45th and Fremont. See tenpod.org

A second TENpod is housed in The Rocket building on 11th and E Burnside. Come check us out this Friday http://tenpod.org/events/

Originally conceived of by guerilla developer and architect Kevin Cavenaugh, the first TENpod created in 2005, is located in The Ode to Roses building in the Beaumont Neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. The TENpod empire was expanded in 2008 at The Burnside Rocket on E Burnside and 11th. A perfect convergence of Portland's creative talents and sustainability ethic, The Rocket is a LEED platinum building covered with art panels created by local artists. So it makes sense that the building is filled with Portland's notorious "creatives" and sustainability professionals.

The Rocket TENpod is a creative services coop comprised of 10 independently owned and operated businesses. We are architects, writers, designers, artists, business and marketing consultants, engineers, builders and more!

Thank you OEN for continuing to support Baker County through PubTalk. Jake Jacobs has done a great job coordinating our local events and making sure we are tied into OEN resources. With tourism as a core component of our local economy, I was honored to have the opportunity to participate and inform our local business leaders about Base Camp Baker, Eastern Oregon's recreation and travel hub!

RE: Sometimes Startups Are Created for Purposes Other Than Generating Wealth -- and in Oregon, We Embrace That

you are hitting a great chord. we think one of the most exciting changes we are seeing is the area of impact investing....more than money. in a funny way, that's how hi-tech started...in the 70's it was about "the HP way", apple was about providing the masses with a great leveler...

see places like http://www.globalimpactinvestingnetwork.org/cgi-bin/iowa/home/index.html

here's a reading list on impact investing: http://quuh.wordpress.com/2010/01/02/a-reading-list-for-impact-investing/

These tend to occur annually. Sometimes we do it twice a year. It depends on demand.
