SUMMARY:1 Million Cups - Orlando Weekly Meetup
DESCRIPTION:If you love and support entrepreneurship and small business\, there’s no better place to be on Wednesday mornings! We meet every week to support and learn from each other and entrepreneurs around the country. \nCreated by the Kauffman Foundation (one of the largest philanthropic\, entrepreneurial & venture capital organizations in the world)\, we host a weekly educational meetup where entrepreneurs educate us about their business ideas for 6 minutes\, and we share our wisdom and feedback for 20. \nEach week\, two entrepreneurs tell us about their businesses\, and we ask them questions that not only teach us more but also help the presenters hone their own presentations. \nNext week\, we’ll hear from Lucia Cortez of We Plant City\, a company that uses technology to share alternative wellness approaches for improving mental and physical health. \nWe host our weekly events at **TechHub Orlando\, 36 W. Pine\, Orlando\, FL 32801.** \nParking is available at the 55W garage and the Garland surface lot (between Pine and Central) for $2.00/hour. \nYou can find more information at [https://bit.ly/1MCOrlando](https://bit.ly/1MCOrlando). You can also register to attend our meeting via Zoom at [https://bit.ly/1MCO102024](https://bit.ly/1MCO102024). \nFinally\, we’re giving away swag to people who come to 4\, 8\, and 12 consecutive meetings. \n* 4 = 1MC travel mug.\n* 8 = 1MC t-shirt.\n* 12 = 1MC collectible ceramic mug.
