I’m excited to announce the next meeting of the Bellevue+Eastside Entrepreneurs, designed to bring together our Eastside community of entrepreneurs, investors, and sponsors!

We are hosting gatherings the first Thursday of every month that we would love for you to attend.

Our September event will be held at STK Bellevue on Thursday, September 7, 2023.

Sponsored Appetizers will be served, and a cash bar is available.

Innovation through the Eyes of Fictional Characters

Our theme for this month’s meeting is “Innovation through the Eyes of Fictional Characters”. We believe that fictional characters from books, movies, and TV shows often embody traits that entrepreneurs can learn from. Whether it’s resilience, creativity, leadership, or strategic thinking, these characters inspire us to think differently and push boundaries.

Some notable characters we might discuss include Tony Stark (Iron Man) for his innovative technology and entrepreneurial spirit, Sherlock Holmes for his critical thinking and problem-solving skills, Hermione Granger from Harry Potter for her intelligence and resourcefulness, and Don Draper from Mad Men for his creativity in business and marketing strategy.

We encourage you to think about your own favorite fictional characters and what entrepreneurial traits they embody.
