1/5 There's a humble spirit of uncomplicated generosity & collaboration here in OR. And it’s in that spirit that we are launching the Built Marketplace, a consumer's guide to discovering Oregon founded products built with a commitment to craft & community. bizjournals.com/portland/new…
Now that LaunchPad, one of the best learning opportunities for #pdx entrepreneurs is starting tonight, I’m feeling nostalgic! Here’s a 📷 from 2013 when the Supportland kiddos were stuffing bags for biz newbies with @sockittomesocks 💕 @StarveUps @ImmixLaw

Bank lending to small businesses has dropped 12% in the last 8 yrs.
That’s a direct result of banking consolidation & the loss of local community banks.
Does anyone remember when we used to hand wrap every Supportland card?
Here’s a pic from one of our 2010 wine-drunk wrapping parties with the best volunteers in the biz 😊
