We are starting the year strong! Join us on January 22 from 5–7 PM at the Hap Hap Lounge (downtown Boise) for an evening of community, conversation, and learning.
🍻 What’s on tap: two exciting talks
🎤 Building With Community: How FromBoise Grew by Earning Trust
Marissa Lovell – Founder, FromBoise https://www.linkedin.com/in/marissafromboise/
Marissa will share the story of FromBoise: from the original idea and what Boise was missing, to how it evolved into the platform it is today. She’ll talk about:
    - Building and experimenting with a community-first platform
    - Earning trust and staying authentic
    - Growing something rooted in community, not just content
Run by a 2-person team, FromBoise now reaches 70,000+ people each week, with 23,000 newsletter subscribers and 45,000+ social followers.
🎤 Hardware Development Lessons Learned (the Hard Way)
Ryan Gray - Co-founder, SGW Designworks https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryangray/
Since 2008, SGW Designworks has helped bring 110+ products to market and earned 8 product design awards. Ryan will walk through the hard-earned lessons that can make or break a hardware product development project.
✨ Start the year by connecting with Boise’s tech, design, and startup community.
Good people guaranteed. First drink on us!
